Roberts Hearing

[rootlesscosmo]

What about Ted Kennedy? When they told him to let Roberts answear, he said, "I don't want to hear his answear." What an ass.

give 'em a break he was prolly faded.

Rehnquist had a fucked up past with racial issues, but when he got on the court he wasn't able to turn it hard to the right like he or others wanted.

Roberts seems like a traditional conservative, suspcious of government power, doesn't really like things like Affirmative Action or abortion rights, but not militant about them. He's not someone like Thomas or Scalia.

And as for who Bush will next nominate, it seems like if he had his way he would go with loyalty and friendship over ideology and appoint Gonzalez, the current Attorney General, is like Roberts seems to be a traditional conservative, not someone on the hard right.

Neither of these guys, for example, is like Bork, who would've blown shit up.
