Speaking of classic literature … A gentleman by the name of Wayne Root writes in The Blaze:
It’s time to start asking the question. It’s time to be cynical. It’s time to assume the worst of this government.
Has Supreme Court Justice John Roberts been blackmailed or intimidated?
Doubt me? On the same day that Justice Roberts and the Supremes upheld Obamacare – again – the key IRS watchdog reported to Congress that the IRS purposely destroyed evidence of a crime.
Is the idea implausible that this same Obama administration that orders IRS attacks, then orders destruction of key evidence, would stop at nothing to save Obama’s signature achievement? Is it impossible to believe that Obama and his socialist cabal that learned from Saul Alinsky that “the ends justify the means” would hold something over a Supreme Court justice’s head?…
This doesn’t seem odd to you? This doesn’t smell rotten?
This piece of intellectual profundity — titled "Was Supreme Court Justice John Roberts Blackmailed?" — has garnered 18,700 "shares," whatever that means. It could mean that Mr. Root's readership is, in scope, only 42 percent of that of some "progressive" blowhards who are similarly fond of parataxis. But it could also mean something more, and that something is directly related to the Kennedy assassination and 9/11 Trutherism: the utter inability of thousands, even millions of Americans to accept any straightforward explanation of a historic event and jump instead to a conspiratorial finding; Oswald was in cohoots with, well, everyone of evil; George W. Bush and Dick Cheney wired the Twin Towers for implosion; and Justice Roberts upheld Obamacare because he was being blackmailed by, as Mr. Root calls it, the "Obama Crime Family." The least acceptable explanation to such folks is that Justice Roberts upheld Obamacare because Justice Roberts believed it was the right thing for the Court to do.
The Internet is an odd little place, is it not?
