which later gave us legalized sodomy

Give me a break. Although some jurisdictions had anti-sodomy laws on the books, few states had arrested and convicted anyone under these laws in decades. Sodomy has been decriminalized for years. Even in Texas it was a rarity. You are blowing the decision way out of proportion.

Are you under the impression that conservatives are in favor of sanctioned discrimination against a certain class of people?



Let's face it Howlin, many conservatives are. Believe it or not, this conservative pretty much agrees with you, but a landlord or employer should also be able to choose who they hire or have live in their property at the same time.

Silicon,

Thanks for catching that appearance of Coulter on Hannity's show, which demonstrates what I said from the beginning about Coulter. Normally she does excellent research. But in this case, for whatever reason, she did a sloppy job and has produced back-of-the=envelope columns as a result.

Did you happen to read Ann Coulter's latest column wherein she describes the pre-Supreme Court rulings, writings, and conservative bona fides of David Souter? Scary, scary stuff. I have to admit, I'm a little nervous about Roberts, too (although my nervousness is somewhat tempered by my tremendous faith and confidence in Dubya).

"If Roberts is not a conservative Justice, Pres. Bush is a failure."

Just like Reagan was a "failure" right?

Sorry, I don't believe it's 'many.'

I believe that that number is quite few, regardless of their font gnashing.

What conservatives I know believe is that there should be no SPECIAL laws for or against gays. Just like I believe we don't need a Hate Crimes Law.

You should be able to deny housing or work to any person just because you don't like the way they look, FGS, but not SPECIFICALLY because they are gay.

There are some people on these threads tonight that I'd discriminate against just because they're so damn sanctimonious........LOL.

Farah is a Buchananite, end of story. He is not to be considered seriously.

"Farah = part-time wing-nut"

I think he's working hard towards full time employment...

I pay very little attention to Farah anymore. Way too many times screaming wolf... A waste of time.

The "advice" Roberts gave to the "lady lawyer" was to "count your votes" and "be prepared on the cases." Anyone who is not dumb as a brick would know to predict where the Justices are likely to fall on a given case, and to know the cases inside and out, so as not to be embarrassed by questions from the bench.

If you think that advice like that was "absolutely essential" for her handling of the case, you are grossly ignorant of what it takes to conduct a case in the Supreme Court. Since I have worked on 19 cases, now, in that Court, I assure you from experience that Roberts' advice in this instance was the legal equivalent of "run along, little girl."

Quit getting excited on other people's missated facts.

And that's putting it kindly...

Frankly, I am stunned at people who I thought had sense falling for this crap.

These ARE the Democratic talking points -- only it's people who say they are conservatives mouthing them.

Amen

Roberts has been behind the scenes in 2000 Florida recount . And He just looks better and better...

I hope it was that trivial, but what motive on earth would she, of all people, have to talk it up BEFORE he got nominated for SCOTUS. The picture she paints is that Roberts advised her how to snag the swing justices. Any tangible records speaking to the issue would be helpful.

Hey Howlin,

I see you're educating the masses...as usual.

Yes, of course I read her column about David Souter's background. The sad fact is that she has not even attempted such a detailed analysis of the written background of John Roberts. Maybe the homework is too daunting for her. There are tens of thousands of pages to go into, concerning Roberts.

My only conclusion is that these people are Bush haters and are DYING to find something to once again trash him with.

The Democrats must be amused by their great luck at having these "real conservatives" carrying their water.

Scalia was correct in his dissent. The majority ruling in Romer was based on political correctness, not on the Constitution.
