I don't know how closely you've followed this nomination, but Roberts is a practicing Catholic with two young adopted children. His wife is a former head of Feminists for Life.

When I first heard he was Catholic and that he only had two kids, I have to admit I was worried we had another CINO on our hands. But I heaved a big sigh of relief upon hearing that his kids were adopted and that his wife is an active pro-lifer - have you ever in all your days met a woman active in the pro-life movement with a pro-abortion husband? I don't believe there's any such animal. I'd like another diehard conservative like another Thomas or Scalia on the court, but a non-socialist pro-lifer will suit me just fine.

What was Ann Coulter thinking saying this? She's lost her grip and will rue the day she wrote/said this stuff, imo.

Could she not have done one hour's worth of research before writing? Shaking my head in disbelief.

But that's the point of this article. We don't have a record to analyze and, instead, are left with looking to see if he has any kids and if his wife belongs to any prolife groups. Again, it isn't as if there weren't candidates out there with actual records supporting an originalist interpretation of the Constitution. And while records can be attacked, they can also be defended, which is what the Republican Senators are supposed to do for the nominees of the President of their party. This article doesn't necessarily come down on one side or the other. The whole point is that we've got another candidate who may or may not turn out to be what we were promised. We can hope and pray that he is....but if we're wrong we'll have a very long wait to try to remedy the situation.

What is her name. I would like to hear more about her and her involvement for FFL. She must know Eunice Shriver.
