Quote of the Week: Senator “I’ll have another" Kennedy

“I have thought long and hard about the exchanges I had with Judge Roberts, and I have read and re-read the transcript and the record. And try as I might, I cannot find the evidence to conclude that John Roberts understands the real world impact of court decisions on civil rights and equal rights in this country. And I cannot find the evidence to conclude that a Chief Justice John Roberts would be the kind of inspirational leader who would use his powers of persuasion to bring all the Court along on America's continued march of progress.”

The above paragraph is from a statement I found on Teddy’s website. It’s part of his rationale for voting against John Roberts for Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court.

When Teddy says he can’t conclude that Roberts “understands the real world impact of court decisions on civil rights and equal rights,” remember that most (as in Nearly All) people agree that Roberts’ knowledge of the constitution and law, as well as his raw brain power, dwarfed everyone else in the room. Roberts is a true prodigy, as described by his former law professors, his colleagues, even his political enemies.

Read between the lines here, kiddies. When Fat Teddy says “use his powers of persuasion to bring all the Court along on America's continued march of progress,” he means making decisions in accordance with international law. He also means making decisions in line with left wing zealots, who style themselves “progressives”.

If you want nationalized health care, 15% higher taxes, an era of outright raping the rich and giving to the poor, uber-support of workers while business owners and business starters are hung out to dry, follow Kennedy into the sinkhole. A U.S. under Kennedy’s fetid vision would be the “quagmire” he mistakenly believes Iraq to be.

Please remember that I am not, never have been, and probably never will be a Republican. I’m not a Christian, either. I’ve just had enough of the No! party. The libby Dems want to turn us into France, and they can summarily fuck themselves right in the puckered asses.
