I can't imagine how! Greenwald:

Numerous liberal commentators are, rightfully, infuriated by the decision, but have been notably incomplete in their critiques. Matt Yglesias describes the ruling as "Conservative Justices’ Strange Enthusiasm for the Punishment of the Innocent" and argues that ruling in favor of the state over defendants, the executive over the legislature, and the corporation over the individual is "conservative jurisprudence in a nutshell." Think Progress' Ian Millhiser also blames conservatives for this perverse outcome. Scott Lemieux, in making excellent arguments against the Court's reasoning, similarly writes that "this is your court on conservatives" and concludes that it gives the lie to the John-Roberts-claim that judges are mere neutral "umpires." Several other liberal commentators exclusively blame conservatives for this decision.

There's one important fact missing from all of that analysis: namely, this was yet another case where the Obama DOJ sided with the Bush administration and advocated the position that the conservative justices adopted. The Obama DOJ aggressively argued before the Court that convicted criminals have no constitutional right to access evidence for DNA analysis.

Come on, Glenn. Let's be reasonable.

John Roberts isn't a transcendant figure. Obama is, and by extension, his DOJ is transcendant. That's the difference, if only you'd think for a moment. Sheesh.
