The John Roberts Century

John Roberts will be confirmed by the Senate and remain a Supreme Court judge until I’m past retirement then fertilizing daisies with my ashes. At least he has the smarts to make it an interesting ride. What were we expecting? Mother Jones? You could tell how desperate, how pathetic liberalism has become when it took Sandra Day O’Connor as the ideal type of judge — a Reagan appointee, for heaven’s sake, faithful to the cause, with only a few vague left-whiffed adulteries for good measure along the way, to her last decision.
