BTW, Summa cum laude is top in the class, magna cum laude is with much praise but not "literally #1". Smart he may be but that is only an elemental credential as far as I am concerned.
We'll divide ourselves without any help, thank you very much.
"I may have missed what you meant, but do you agree with me that Homosexuals should not be discriminated against when it comes to housing, jobs, or eduction? I hope you do."
Of course they must be discriminated against. Your position is hideously wrongheaded. I am aghast to see such evil posted here.
And one report stated that Scalia himself supports Roberts.
If Roberts is good enough for Bork, Scalia and Olsen, why shouldn't he be good enough for us?
At the risk of being a target of your vitriol, I find the circular logic of this particular comment amusing. Discrimination based on appearance is ok but if based on moral disagreement it is constitutionally prohibited?
Farah is a Kook.
WND in a nutshell.
He better be.
Bush better be??
Farah is a fair weather friend to Conservatives at best.
What are some other examples? Just curious. I actually like some of what he says, though being a teacher, I cringe whenever I hear something about education from him. He doesn't exactly follow that "if you don't have anything nice to say" rule then (in some cases he is justified though).
Some conservatives will call anyone a liberal who doesn't agree with them, even if it is on a minor point.
This guy one time wrote that he hated all the church vandalism going on in his area. I wrote back that I TOTALLY agreed with him and was thankful that it hadn't happened much in my area. He wrote back and accused me of being a liberal because I said that it didn't have much in my area. Oh brother....
Do a search on "Roberts" right here on FR. There's all kinds of positive info about him right here.
Here's a tip: Look for the posts with the fewest responses. For some reason, the articles with the positive information on Roberts have been all but ignored. Imagine that.
Same goes for James Dobson. Guess Dobson's a lib. Plus Roberts worked for Reagan. Reagan must have been a stealth liberal as well.
Yes, since we all ad-lib once in a while, we are all liberals.:)
So Farah wants a date with Coulter,big deal.
Aren't they both married?:)
What he did in that case was routine for his firm. CSPAN played an '87 speech and Q&A session of Roberts speaking about the SC. He mentioned his firm using mock trials in which someone from the firm would play the role of an SC justice while the attorneys on the case would practice presenting their case.
He also said that SCOTUS is free to disregard or restrict precedent.
I suspect that the tactic by the left, played by the LA Slimes is to split conservatives on what the left considers to be a dangerous threat to their control of the courts.
As usual, conservative "purists" continue to be their own worst enemies as the eagerly chase the sock puppets held in front of them by the left.
As far as I was concerned, the pivotal issues in 2000 and 04 were terrorism and the court (I've given up on immigration).
Time will tell if our election sucesses will have any meaning.
Exactly--wait a minute, aren't those who hate all that he does supposed to be liberals?
Actually, I don't support President Bush on some things, maybe even many things, but I do respect the man and his office. I'm not going to throw a temper tantrum every time about him, but I'll address things that I agree and disagree with and do the best I can. We have enough liberals and two-year-olds who throw tantrums anyhow. We don't need more of them.
"The World's Only Reliable Newspaper." LOL!
Excuse me, but are "gay rights" as we see them "special rights," and not necessary?
Gays should have basic rights, but no "special" rights. They are NOT a minority group in my eyes. If that was the case, any of us could claim to be members of some minority group. We might as well have special rights for hazel-eyed, short, blond heterosexuals then.
Looks like you responded to me for someone else's comments.
