BushBot: one who impugns the intelligence of those who disagree with them on subjects relating to the presumption that the President is infallible...if the shoe fits....You know no more about Roberts (or the judiciary) than I do I'll wager and if you have specific knowledge of his positions on those subjects, share you wisdom with us. My only position on Roberts is no one can be sure of his positions and that is dangerous. If he turns out well, great. If not will you come back and tell us all why?

While he may be an unknown quantity to YOU, he is not to people who have taken a little time to research him.
I have listened to the Audio recordings of his Supreme Court Arguments.
I have read articles and seen interviews by people who have known and worked with him for almost three decades.
I have read many of his 50 positions as a Federal Appellate Judge on the Fifth Circuit.
I have researched his wife's involvement in conservative causes including "Feminists for Life" of which she was a Board Member and is now legal counsel.
I have looked at his record at Harvard and his advanced study programs in High School.
I read some of the papers released from his time working for the REAGAN and BUSH I administrations.
I have watched the Confirmation hearing three times.

Is this how a "BushBot" operates?

The reason it is ignorant to use the word "BushBot" to describe someone with whom you disagree is because you have no idea what resources I used to come to my conclusion that John Glover Roberts, Jr. will be the best thing to happen to the Supreme Court in a very long time. I would like to add one last thing.

When William Rehnquist was asked a few years ago a series of questions like, "Who is the best practitioner before the Supreme Court" and "Who is the best appellate attorney in the United States," his response was to chuckle and say, "Well, that would certainly have to be Mr. Roberts."
