Foolya Roberts

AITOOW thinks that the Amy Coney Barrett saga was caused by John Roberts? If he hadn't changed his judicial ethics/thinking (in a potentially misguided attempt to save the SC from criticism of being a political handmaiden or to curry favor with the ruling class and DC polite society), there wouldn't have been as much of a need to add another Justice who shared the values of the branch of judicial thinking that he abandoned. The whole situation is really his fault and should be a lesson to anyone who tries to put their finger on the scales of justice. He has further diminished the Court's reputation. Not enhanced it. And if the Court gets packed, it will never be looked upon as anything but a political institution.
