Per Washington Post:
The White House said Roberts worked on the 1996 case for less than 10 hours and that he always agreed when someone at his law firm asked for help on a pro bono case in his area of expertise, appellate and Supreme Court arguments.

What do you know about him? Can any one explain to me, on the basis of what we know about Roberts, what he believes in about the role of the courts, the federal government, states' rights, national security, environmental protection, social issues, and personal liberties? We don't have a record of his stands on any of those issues. As Ann Coulter wrote, its hard to believe he went through life without ever once enraging liberals and there's plenty to upset them.

Never mind all that now.

These people NEED something -- anything -- to bash this good man with.

However, I can't believe that Bush could or would be so "off the mark". Why or how could he be?

Roberts may yet turn out to be okay. We have no alternative but to wait. Bush has made his decision and will not recall it. And, as Farah points out, Roberts' support from Senate Democrats will be unanimous or close to it.

If Roberts turns out to be a mistake like Souter we'll be stuck with it for 30-35 years at least. That's long enough to ensure the social liberal agenda becomes a permanent and unchallengeable part of our laws and lives and the lives of our grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

May God have mercy on us and this nation and may He guide George W. Bush appropriately to that end.

Can you really guarantee he will vote like Scalia and Thomas?

I can't guarantee a damn thing, up to and including that I will live to see the shuttle land tonight.

FGS, run for office if you think you can do a better job.

In contrast, Roberts is a blank slate.

No kidding? Then why did you put this thread up? I mean, are we or are we not DISCUSSING some of his legal work?

Any one can read anything they want into him.

So I see; even things that are not there.

Frankly, I'm sick of all of you who have to find SOMETHING to carp about in every single issue.

Conservatives Remain Steady In Support of Roberts, Washington Post

Excepting those who've bought into the LA Times line of bullcrap...

No one's disputing his character. What we have questions about are his stands on the issues of concern to us. This guy could serve an entire lifetime on the court. And he should take the time to explain his judicial philosophy and where the courts fit into the picture. We don't want to find out later we put another judicial activist on the court. Responsible criticism isn't mindless bashing of another human being. Better safe than sorry.

This article is sad. How easily a single case is found that can be construed to favor gays, so split off the anti-gays from the strict constructionists.

I do not hold that we should put on the Court only judges who oppose gays in all cases. I hold that we should put on the Court only judges who uphold the constitution in all cases.

Now and then, anyone, even gays, may find that the plain text of the constitution is on their side in a case. So be it.

The gay baiting of this post and its transparent use as a tool to divide us is disgusting.

Here is the summary text of the actual ROMER v. EVANS, ___ U.S. ___ (1996) Supreme Court decision:


Amendment 2 violates the Equal Protection Clause. Pp. 4-14.

A clear and substantial case is made here that the Colorado Ammendment 2 violated the plain text of the 14th Ammendment.

Falwell supports Roberts and had no problem with his work on some of these cases - therefore, Falwell must be a stealth liberal.

Why is it that your "concerns" are so much more important than people who have actually dealt with this man and who actually know what kind of lawyer he is? You know, the people who support him?

What should anybody give a rat's butt what Ann Coulter or Joe Farah or Carl Limbacher think about this guy?

P.S. Roe v. Wade is NEVER going to be overturned, so if that's what you're looking for you're going to be disappointed for the rest of your life.

I agree... I'll go with Mark Levin's opinion anytime.

Same goes for James Dobson. Guess Dobson's a lib. Plus Roberts worked for Reagan. Reagan must have been a stealth liberal as well.

Seriously, WND was once the premier Internet news site of its kind. We supported Farah when Clinton unleashed his IRS goons on him; furthermore WND single-handedly caused Gore to lose TN in the 2000 election over his landlord scandal.

Now I understand that Farah is lukewarm in his support of Bush, as I am, but c'mon. Every thing Bush has done Farah has resorted to wild-eyed conspiracy shilling that makes a New York Times article look as if it was written by Ann Coulter.

Hence, the Weekly World News graphic...

Of course it could be. Bush has the power to make that happen with his appointments.
