Mark Levin, Justice Robert Bork, Ted Olsen and many other stellar Conservatives back Judge Roberts and I'll take their advice long before I would Joseph Farah's

Farah is a fair weather friend to Conservatives at best.

Exactly how much time to Roberts spend on this case ?? I thought I heard on the radio it was about 6 hours .. that ain't a awhole of time for a lawyer in a case this big

Yes, I'd like to know the specific number of hours too. But aparently it wasn't a lot. In fact it was less than other cases. I saw this quote:

Also, it was described in one article that Roberts time spent was actually playing the role of Justice Scalia in a mock SC hearing.

Imagine that, Hogan and Hartson's Pro Bono department (H & H being the firm that Roberts worked for), asks Roberts to help out by playing Scalia in a SC hearing. Sounds to me like Roberts is a Scalia-type and the Pro Bono department knows it.

Not to mention Roberts has the complete support of Dobson and the Family Research Council.

Roberts is a solid Reaganite. Just because he did some pro-gay legal work ten years ago, doesn't mean he isn't a conservative.

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

Some would slam Joseph Farah and World Nut Daily for too often bamboozling their readers.

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?

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).

Time will tell if Joseph Farah is on to something. At this time in 1990, Howard Phillips warned that David Souter was no conservative though he had nearly unanimous Republican support. Phillips had issued a similar warning (along with Jerry Falwell) on Sandra Day O'Connor in 1981. In a year or two, perhaps we will know if Joseph Farah and Ann Coulter are the few conservatives right on Roberts.

He has written that he is neither a conservative nor a liberal. So, I don't know what the guy is. He is an Arab, yet not a Muslin. He says he is a Christian in other articles I have read that he wrote. But, from what I have read, he will bash liberals and also bashes conservatives.
