Roberts' describing Roe as "settled law" is disturbing. It might even be ok if he said "a flawed decision, but too deeply ingrained to reverse." But I'm very unhappy with "settled law." I would hope for a little more spunk from a so-called conservative.

Spunk? he showed plenty of spunk when he agreed to help the corrupt DC government in its effort to overturn welfare time limits pro bono. Happy now?

That quote comes from an answer in his confirmation hearings given to Diane Feinstein's question "What is your personal opinion of Roe v. Wade?" He avoided the question by saying it is settled law. The answer does not bother me because my hunch is why would he avoid the question if he had an answer that would placate her?
