Oh goodness, from whispered rumors to God's ears...

RadarOnline is reporting that Chief Justice John Roberts is "seriously
considering" stepping down from the Supreme Court "for personal
reasons".

Roberts, a staunch conservative, was appointed by President Bush and
has served on the court since 2005. While RadarOnline doesn't give a
reason for the possible retirement, Roberts, 55, has suffered two
seizures, in 2007 and 1993. Time magazine speculated in 2007 that
Roberts may have epilepsy. However, the Supreme Court said after the
2007 seizure that Roberts was "fully recovered" and a neurological
evaluation "revealed no cause for concern."

Sources told RadarOnline that retirement announcement could come "at
any time."

A spokesperson for the Supreme Court has not yet returned a request
for comment from Huffington Post.


You gotta be kidding me...
