So I tagged him with Justice French Fry, which I kinda like, but perhaps it's time to change it to Justice Bad News. John Roberts is 1600 Crew company man right down the line. He's getting his "ambassadorship" for working the 2000 Elections to help put Preznit Minimal Intellect into the White House and fuck the nation. If some of this does not start to constitute "extraordinary circumstances" in the minds of some of the Democrats on the so-called "gang of 14", then they ought to just retire to their lobbyist-paid for villas now and quit fucking up the country.

He favored less government enforcement of civil rights laws rather than more. He criticized court decisions that required a thick wall between church and state. He took the side of prosecutors over criminal defendants. He maintained that the role of the courts should be limited and the powers of the president enhanced.

So there it is, the complete Fascist American package. Allowing this guy on the court might be the biggest mistake the Democrats could, make. He's likely to have a tenure of 30 years. I'll make another prediction: He's gonna get the nod for Chief Justice if Rehnquist retires. Why? Because he's not going to go off the reservation and he's younger than Scalia. Fat Tony has made too many ideological enemies to get confirmed easily. Thomas doesn't have the intellectual candlepower to take the job and be seen as a credible Chief Justice. Roberts fits the bill, and will be Beloved Leaders Venereal Disease for the Generations: a foul, intractable gift that keeps on giving.
