It is the rare individual indeed who lives his life in such a way as not to allow a hostile Senate Judiciary Committee a single opening.
And he'll be a great Chief Justice.
When judges interpret the law as written, rather than deciding to write it themselves, the preferences of the people are honored and protected. On the other hand, when judges impose their individual policy preferences under the guise of interpreting the Constitution, the nation may be stuck with those preferences for a long time.
There is little indication Judge Roberts would ever seek to impose his personal views on the nation from the bench. This is important in many areas, but perhaps none more than the war on terrorism. In the end, this is why members of both parties should support Roberts.

No kidding, this guy is the gold standard. He's got Biden and Feinstein fawning over him, and with good reason - what a well-spoken and thoughtful man.
I wonder if it's hard for politicians to fight integrity, because they so seldom witness it.
