Democrats shift strategy on Roberts
Plan to use Katrina to highlight racial and economic divide
By Rick Klein, Globe Staff | September 7, 2005
WASHINGTON -- Senate Democrats said yesterday that they will invoke the vast disparities in income and living conditions laid bare by the Hurricane Katrina disaster to sharpen their questioning of Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts Jr. at his confirmation hearings next week.
The scenes of devastation featuring primarily poor African-American residents in New Orleans have highlighted the widening gap between rich and poor, said Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Democrat of Massachusetts.
With Roberts having urged a narrow interpretation of civil rights laws in the past, Senate Democrats will link the scenes of economic hardship with the constitutional and legal issues that surround efforts to address racial and economic inequalities, he said.
''We have made very important progress over the period of the last 50 years in knocking down walls of discrimination so that people can participate and be a part of a changed America," said Kennedy, a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee. ''And he's going to be asked to explain some of his advice that would have, I think, undermined that progress in important ways."

Hey, it's a way of life for them!
If you have nothing, you have nothing to lose.
I believe he also said "I just lost the South to the Democrats for the next hundred years."
Exactly what political party is, with precious few exceptions, in charge of most city governments? And has been for the past four or five decades?
What political party had their "opportunity for greatness" (that Bill Clinton missed out on on 911) this past week and could not have failed more dismally and in every way people can fail.
What political party ran the city government in New Orleans?
Have your hearings, Democrats. Let you have yours, let Hillary have hers. Bring it on. You people are so twisted with hate and obsessed with what Republicans are that you can never, ever hope to be that you can't even see that this will all blow up right in your faces. Bring it on.
Fools.
The "chirping" will go on for a couple of weeks after the hearings start and Roberts will be selected.
He should answer every question kennedy asks with, "I'll cross that bridge when I come to it."
LOL
Whatever.. more democracy loot blackmail
The Republicans need to highlight that after 50 years and trillions of dollars, the RAT'S PLAN TO HELP THE POOR AND UNDERCLASS HAS NOT WORKED ONE IOTA!!!
Of Course!.....leave it to the Demoncats to play political football with a natural disaster...It's all Bush's fault!
Who would expect the Rats to do anything other than build a political program around race-baiting?
There is also a wide disparity in the racial make-up of looters, with about 99.7% of those assested or shown being black..
Shameless opportunists exploting suffering and death for their own petty agenda -- these people give leaches a bad name.
Pardon me while I throw up. Ship Liberals to Iraq where they can be useful for once in their lives.
That in the misery and misfortune of the American people, the 'Rats find their opportunity, says all there is to say.
They just cannot stay "on message", can they! Free Mumia...oh, wait.
Amen.
They've totally lost it.
Yet, the RATS continue to do what they do best....STEP IN IT!
I agree that there's a clear divide between people who loot, rape babies and old women, fire guns at National Guardsmen, and those who don't.
