Roberts NOT a Federalist Society Member
I heard this on C-SPAN this morning but so far the rest of the media hasn't seemed to get around to actually correcting themselve. The Seattle Times has the story.
Does this change my views on Roberts - I don't know whether it shows that he isn't the ideologue some fear (and that others desire), but it may also be sign that he really is the perfect stealth nominee and has been EXTREMELY careful to never do anything that might hurt his chances at getting confirmed. The latter seems in the realm of tinfoil-hat conspiracy theory, but given the administration's record I won't write-off the possibility just yet.
7-22-05 1am: a prior report that Roberts was involved in Iran-Contra has now also been retracted - it was different John Roberts that served in the Reagan Administration.
huh? (Score:2)
No fillibuster my milky white pimpled ass; wait for the "shocked, shocked" Pat Leahy after the hearings.
