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.

DICTATOR for LIFE?



Earlier we commented about Bush elevating Judge Roberts all the way to Chief Justice in one fell swoop instead of selecting a currently reigning justice. We alluded to the position being a "dictator for life". Apparently, that's what Bush and Roberts indeed had in mind.

During a comic parry with Senator Kohl on with which of the earlier memos Judge Roberts does agree, Judge Roberts allowed that he now disagrees with one in which he suggested term limits for justices of the Supreme Court.

He may have said it in a light-manner, but it's very curious that he supported limiting the terms of Supreme Court justices until HE was considered for one himself.
