I listened to the Mark Levin show today.

Mark Levin originally supported Roberts unqualifiedly.

He indicated on his show today that the recent revelation of Roberts taking that homosexual case on a "pro bono" basis was a "small red flag". He went on to explain the ramifications of that court decision Roberts was instrumental in having decided.


I no longer support Roberts. I agree with Coulter. Someone who had the legal expertise to know the ramifications of that decision and yet took an active role in getting it implemented is no conservative and deserves no conservative support. At the very least, his perception of "strict construction" - Roberts' that is - is seriously flawed.

This wouldn't be the first time George Bush had misplaced trust in a candidate: re-appointing Louie Freeh, and George Tennet, Norman Minetta, Tom Ridge, Alberto Gonzales, Chrissie Whitman, Tom Kean, and, of course, Colin Powell are all good indications of this President's lack of judgment when selecting nominees.


George Bush "owes" us - his constituents - the people who worked for him and helped put him in office. And what he "owes" us is a strict constructionist in the real sense of that term - not some some mamby pamby Souter clone who thinks its o.k. to forbid people from discriminating against individuals who practise a bizare and unnatural sexual perversion.
I think we have been flimflammed. This may be why a good number of Democrats are comfortable with Roberts - and why we should NOT be.

VERY interesting, Zulu...thanks!

I gotta' say, I no longer feel as committed to seeing that he gets approved...I suspect he's another Souter, while I was hoping he's another Scalia.

But I really have my doubts now.

Thanks for telling us about Levin's comments.
