Thursday, September 15, 2005 Judge Roberts: Not Up to Speed on 1st Amendment Editor & Publisher: Roberts: "...I haven't dealt with a lot of First Amendment access cases. I studied one about media access to prisons, for example; the issue about whether the media had a right of access to prisons -- they wanted to report on it. And so I'm not terribly familiar with the precise levels of scrutiny that apply." Gee, a soon-to-be Chief Justice who is not terribly familar w/ one of our most important amendments that grants us vital civil rights? How typical of Bush to nominate someone who may not be qualified & capable, unless you love the idea of having our rights taken away. Read this summary of Roberts' non-answers, see why some say Roberts is a douchebag and liar. |
