A key to Scandal's truth-telling mission in regard to THE Scandals of both the 20th and 21st Centuries: the professional assassinations of JFK, MLK and RFK and the professional hacks of the 2000, 2004 and 2010 U.S. elections, is its fictional portrayal of a U.S. Supreme Court Justice as having been involved in: 1) funding the attempted assassination of the President, 2) the conspiracy to rig the Presidential election with a software on electronic voting machines in Defiance, Ohio, 3) suffering to the point of death at the hands of the President. Pretty heavy stuff for prime time, highest-rated television. How is that for "conspiracy theory?"

One can listen on the Internet to President Johnson's conversation with J. Edgar Hoover about not wanting to have a Congressional investigation of the assassination of JFK and wanting Hoover to handle it before a Presidential Commission chaired by U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren.

Chief Justice Roberts as a private attorney worked on the prepping of the argument presented to the U.S. Supreme Court in Bush v. Gore. The 2000 Florida election involved a combination of rigged paper ballots and rigged electronic voting machines. Chief Justice Roberts engineered the January 2010 Citizens United decision that unleashed unprecedented levels of funding for the purpose of allowing the Rove, Koch, Chamber combine to take of statehouses and legislative redistricting for the next decade, and attempt to deny President Obama's reelection.

In a few short sentences President Obama decimated the credibility of the partisan Republican majority of the U.S. Supreme Court in his 2010 State of the Union Address. President Obama, a former professor of Constitutional Law, admonished the Chief Justice for reversing one hundred years of sound judicial precedent constraining the use of corporate treasury money to influence candidate elections, in overturning both the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, signed by President Bush, and Austin v. Michigan Chamber of Commerce, authored by Justice Thurgood Marshall.
