Statement by John Kerry on the Nomination of John G. Roberts to the Supreme Court
"Americans deserve a Supreme Court that is fair, independent, ethical and served by justices committed to our constitutional freedoms rather than an ideological agenda. Justice O'Connor refused to use her position as a means to advance a political agenda. In replacing her, we must be confident Judge Roberts will do the same.
"We know Judge Roberts is no Sandra Day O'Connor, and the White House has sent a clear signal. There are serious questions that must be answered involving Judge Roberts' judicial philosophy as demonstrated over his short time on the appellate court. The Senate must learn whether he has clear consistent principles upholding Constitutional standards like civil rights and the right to privacy in Roe v. Wade. These issues are in serious question if you take even a cursory glance at his record.
"The American people expect the Senate to fulfill its duty to conduct a thorough, independent review of any nominee, and I intend to do exactly that. I hope Judge Roberts and the White House are forthcoming about his qualifications, background and constitutional philosophy so the Senate can act with all the facts. There's too much at stake to do anything less."
Anyone think Kerry will show to vote?
John, you lost the last election, President Bush won. He gets to pick, and it looks like he picked a good one.
"Now STFU and let President Bush have his nominee."
Wise man once say -
"The minority will be heard. And the majority will rule."
Why havn't they tried this Traitor for Treason yet?
Which reminds me why I want Bush to nominate Janice Rogers Brown.
Byrd is already the only senator to vote against BOTH black supreme court justices.
Why not go for the Triple KKKrown.
Clear Signal from White House, SHOVE IT, Kerry!
Seared -- seared -- into his mind, it is.
Sent by Nixon in 1968, of course.

John G. Roberts, a lesbian, is no Sandra Day O'Connor...
The focus group hasn't gotten back to her yet.
Kerry voted for him before and I think most if not all the Democrats did. That should tell us something. I'm no sure we're getting what we think we're getting.
Mista Gambini......Mista Gambini
It was Minerva, not Diana
Who is John Kerry?
I don't know; but when I read that I "hear it" with a horrible voice from the past. Every word my eyes saw, I "heard" the voice of a traitor.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
LOL. I liked SISSY to describe him, until I saw PUNK A$$.
And you sir, are no John F. Kennedy.
"Well John, you already voted for him once..."
I voted for him before I voted against him. JFnK
No!!
