Jonah Goldberg On Roberts Decision: ‘Consolation Prize,’ Puts Obama In ‘Uncomfortable Position’


Jonah Goldberg doesn’t have many good things to say about Chief Justice John Roberts‘s majority opinion in last week’s health care Supreme Court decision. On Fox News today, Goldberg called it unconvincing and wondered whether the Chief Justice “reverse engineered” his logic, but he did have something good to say about some of the political ramifications of the decision. “I am delighted by the silver linings of this decision,” he told Gregg Jarrett today, explaining that it puts the White House in an “uncomfortable” position.

His signature piece has been ruled INTACT, and somehow that is a Problem for the President? Didn't they pull this same shit when Obama announced the death of Osama Bin Laden? This is called throwing shit against the wall and let's see what sticks.

GOP running mixed messages..the congressional GOP are saying its a TAX...Romney campaign: A Penalty fee.

CBS reporting about a leak at the Supreme, could explain the swagger of the GOP before the ruling. They were SO SURE the law would be stricken down. They never intended to be talking healthcare, except to smear the loss in Obama's face.

Can you believe it? They didn't have a back up plan...JUST IN CASE...the law was upheld, they were that sure. This could explain the absurd tactic of holding millions of working poor people hostage...that sound like a well thought out plan to you?

challenge and show us how much of a tough guy he really is:

"I've been training Mixed Martial Arts for a while now," he told us. "And you can always tell which new guy isn't going to last. Let's call them 'Little Jonahs.' Oddly enough, they're not the small ones. Usually it's the big meathead in the American flag tapout shirt who you know talks shit at the bar every weekend about how much ass he can kick."

As for how much ass Kilstein can kick, some feel that Goldberg would indeed be in danger were he to accept the challenge. Musician Ted Leo, a friend of Kilstein's, weighed in on the proposed fight on his blog. "I have absolutely zero desire to see Jamie Kilstein beat the crap out of Jonah Goldberg, and make no mistake – I know Jamie Kilstein, and he WILL beat the crap out of Jonah Goldberg."

So in the unlikely event that Jonah does show up, where will the charity money be donated? "For me, I'm going to find something like gay lady socialists for a one state solution," Kilstein jokes.

As for Jonah? "He will probably donate it to build an Ayn Rand fuck doll."

stark contrast to the DO NOTHING congress. Again they won't give this man credit for accomplishing what past President's before him had tried and failed. HE DID IT

Like it or not, this was an amazing accomplishment, they can't afford to have Obama seen as a strong effective leader, who gets things done.
