Red Skies, Part II

I don't care how many ways Judge Roberts dances around the abortion question during his Senate confirmation hearings (Roe v. Wade is "settled as a precedent of the court, entitled to respect under principles of stare decisis."), you damn well KNOW that he's a conservative Trojan Horse. His seemingly pro-choice answers to the abortion questions should be raising the alarms with the James Dobson (Focus on the Family), Tony Perkins (Family Research Council), Pat Robertson (700 Club) crowd -- but they, apparently, like what they hear and see.

So any middle-of-the-road to liberal American should be raising hell about this guy.

And c'mon...once bitten, twice shy, right? Remember, this is the administration that sold the American people on the Iraq invasion and occupation, even though Saddam had nothing to do with 9/11, had no WMDs, and was by no means an imminent threat to our national security. Mushroom clouds, indeed. They lied to our faces. And have done so many times since.

Clearly, Bush, Inc. only cares about appeasing their wealthy, white, conservative GOP business friends (they are the base that Rove caters to in all of Bush's policy, from tax-cutting, business deregulation, to the Kyoto treaty), so you can bet that Roberts (clearly a highly intelligent person, but a judge with only two year's experience on the bench) is their guy to help gut Roe v. Wade and everything else that is on the right wing's agenda for the Supreme Court.
