Did Chief Justice Expose ObamaCare?

Yesterday I was fairly pissed off that Chief Justice Roberts basically hung out the conservatives by his vote on ObamaCare. This morning how however, I may have to backup a little. Why you say. I read an article on the American Thinker blog that made some sense, at least for the moment it does.

"John Roberts has handed a remarkable victory to American conservatives by threading the judicial needle with perfect precision."
When I read that I was even for confused, but taking time to read the entire article, it made good sense as to why Roberts may have voted the way he did.

I am going to have to listen up more to see if I buy in to Roberts way of thinking on this.   I will go ahead and post the article this morning,  let me know if you agree or disagree on this extremely important issue.  So sit back drink so coffee and read the article.


Chief Justice John Roberts has handed a remarkable victory to American conservatives by threading the judicial needle with perfect precision.  The initial disappointment collectively felt by Americans who had hoped for a Supreme Court ruling that would overturn Obamacare soon will be replaced, upon further reflection, by the excitement that will come with a fuller appreciation of what the Chief Justice has wrought.

First, almost completely unnoticed, the Chief Justice voted with his four conservative colleagues in drawing an unprecedented red line against Washington wielding the Constitution's Commerce Clause in the future to justify federal intrusion into the personal lives of Americans.  This decision will restrict American Presidents and future Congresses for a generation and more.
