And to this conservative as well. I had hoped and prayed that Bush would take this once in a lifetime opportunity to turn the USSC back into a court which respects and obeys the original intent of the authors. What I am hearing today is not encouraging.
If Roberts turns out to be any less conservative than Rehnquist, and if O'Conner is replaced with another so-called "moderate", the US is doomed to continue down it's present gradual decline into a European-style socialistic cesspool and eventual destruction.
While I disagree with you as to what Robert's judicial philosophy is, one should be very careful to avoid falling into the liberal concept that a court is there to legislate back to sanity.
Roberts is confounding the asses on the panel.....and stated the Supreme Court should not be the remedy for social ills. That's just what I wanted to hear.
If you're listening, his positions are acceptable to most conservatives.
Remember, this is a game.....and as Rush just said, the liberal senators are just talking for the record, and the air is really out of their tires.
Roberts is doing a lot of talking, but handing the enemy senators nothing.
Rejoice, the end is NOT near.

PresBush said Scalia and Thomas are his idea of what a USSC justice should be. I agree. I don't think Roberts rises to the level of a Scalia, Thomas or even a CJ Rehnquist.
