'''John G. Roberts, Jr.''' (1955- ) is the 17th and current Chief Justice of the [[U.S. Supreme Court]] (2005-). He was appointed by [[President]] [[George W. Bush]] to replace [[William Rehnquist]] as Chief Justice, after having served on the Court of Appeals for the [[D.C. Circuit]].  Chief Justice Roberts provided the pivotal 5th vote to uphold [[ObamaCare]] on the unexpected grounds that he found it to be a tax, rather than a proper exercise of [[Commerce Clause]] authority.
