John Roberts & Corporations, A Love Story

.

Ah, the final nail in the coffin. The end of America, land of the free, home of the brave, the American Dream. It's now America, Inc. The elitist neo-con's have taken control of all 3 branches of government. This final nail is the appointment of the white millionaire, Judge John Roberts to serve for the rest of his life on the United States Supreme Court. Roberts not only has a strong background of representing big corporations against the "sue happy" disabled and minorities, he was also one of the attorneys representing Bush against the recount in Florida. So the new "America, Inc." stands for record deficits, lenient pollution standards, high gas/energy prices, sky-rocketing healthcare costs, record lay-offs, pre-emptive military invasions and dare I say- fixed elections.

The Washington Post reported that Robert's has represented corporate clients from HMO's to automakers. "Among the companies he represented was Toyota, for which he won a Supreme Court decision. The ruling effectively raised the standard for someone to be eligible for protection under the Americans With Disabilities Act." You know, you have to watch the handicapped or they'll steal your profits! Roberts is known as the 'go to' guy for corporate interests, according to the LA Times. "Roberts represented numerous companies — Chrysler Corp., Litton Systems, WellPoint Health Networks (the #1 health insurance corp in America) and NBC — as well as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and trade associations for the mining and beer industries."

C. Boyden Gray, former White House counsel to George H.W. Bush was quoted as saying that "businesspeople are very enthused" about this nomination. No shit C!
