How about a *property* litmus test for Judge Roberts

[Pangloss]

Just a random thought: How about hitting Judge Roberts with a litmus test on his thoughts about personal property? Does he think it's okay for the state to take someone's personal property to, say, build a shopping mall?

He won't answer that untill he finds out the fate of Judge Souter's property.

Or the contents of Judge Rehnquist's will?

 

(Yeah, we're mean, sue us. Heh heh.)

I just checked Wiki (Chief Justice of the United States), and interestingly enough, they've already updated that Bush has nominated Roberts to be the Chief Justice.

 

BTW, I can hardly wait for the blitzkrieg to follow.

I predict a smooth sailing. Too many Democrats and external observers have already declared him acceptable. Nina Totenberg of NPR (no friend of the Bush administration) was practically gushing about the guy when his name was announced. There will be more silliness from the special interest groups, but that's about it.
