Why haven't I blogged on John Roberts' confirmation hearings?
Because you know all you need to know about the guy is who he worked for.
Injustice Rehnquist, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Hogan & Hartson.
Ronald Reagan did not have a bunch of closet liberals or even libertarians sitting in his US Attorney's office sending out blizzards of compassionate memos.
He had hardcore right wing fanatics like John Roberts. John Roberts, to the right of Ted Olsen, Robert Bork and Strom Thurmond.
So, I gotta say, I knew who this guy was from the minute I read his resume. To pretend that he may undertake any confirmation or post-appointment conversion is a hollow and ultimately empty hope.
The corporate media keeps up the pretense that Roberts is a mystery:
From the Washington Post: E.J. Dionne: The Case For a 'No' Vote on Roberts
New York Times editorial: Too Much of a Mystery
