ROBERTS RULES OF ORDER

Judge John Roberts is perceived as a strict constitutional conservative and is being held up as an example of George W. Bush also being conservative. The Bush Scorecard blogs put the lie to that claim, and this one exposes Roberts as a typical Bushite phony. To praise or blast blogmaster, email Teno@new.rr.com.

ROBERTS DEFENDED PORNOGRAPHY!


Every time I think Judge Roberts' record cannot possibly get any worse I come across one like this (thanks to Stephen Hall for this one).

Judge Roberts worked to enable Playboy to keep their smut accessible to CHILDREN. If I didn't see it myself, I wouldn't believe it.

Can any Christian conservatives be so numb between the ears that they will still defend this immoral reprobate?

First Supreme Court Vacancy Test for George W. Bush

Roberts 'Played' for Playboy in SCOTUS Case

by Robert B. Bluey Aug 11, 2005

Bush's pick for the Supreme Court worked for Playboy in high court case.

Supreme Court nominee Judge John Roberts, while serving as the head of Hogan & Hartson’s appellate division, spent about a dozen hours working on behalf of Playboy Entertainment Group in a case before the Supreme Court in 1999, his former colleague told HUMAN EVENTS.

Roberts played the role of a Supreme Court justice in a moot court setting, preparing Playboy’s lead counsel, Robert Corn-Revere, who worked in Hogan & Hartson’s communications department, for his oral argument before the Supreme Court, Corn-Revere confirmed to HUMAN EVENTS.

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.

Conservatives were dismayed to learn last week that Roberts played a similar role in Romer v. Evans, a landmark homosexual-rights case. Just as in the Playboy case, Roberts assisted with moot court. Romer, however, was a “pro bono” project, whereas Playboy was a paying client.
