This stuff is just pure BS. Why do some conservatives take delight in eating their own young?

Why do some conservatives take delight in eating their own young?

Is it "eating the young" or "preserving the young"?

Roberts was working to assist his law firm to allow Playboy's images to be seen by kids.

(From the full article: "Playboy’s case challenged the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which required cable TV operators to scramble sexually explicit content or restrict the pornography to hours when children would be unlikely to view it. Playboy won the case, 5-4, much to the consternation of conservatives. Justice Antonin Scalia wrote a biting dissent.")

Yes, parents should control what their kids are watching -- absolutely. And parents who think they have blocked porn from appearing on their TVs are exercising such control.

To say that conservatives who even dare to point out Roberts' affiliation with Playboy are wanting to "eat their own young" is a mischaracterization at best.

Many leading conservatives, Ann Coulter included, have doubted this man's conservative/constructionist credentials. This may be just another example of his lack of integrity. Whoring yourself out for your law firm does not make you a good lawyer/team player, it makes you a whore.

That would be the sign of a necrocrat...someone slid over from RINO to snuff.

Because some are dumb as doorposts and easily manipulated by their alleged enemies.
