Beldar: “Dubya doesn’t parse language and he really sucks at dissembling. He doesn’t wonder what the meaning of “is” is. He’s not a lawyer. Dubya is the anti-Clinton. These are some of the very things that I — and, I believe, tens of millions of other Americans — like best about him.”

Talk about a load of crap. In less than 30 seconds after Bush announced John Roberts as his Supreme Court nominee, Moveon.org released this greatest hits list on the conservative judge:

• Roberts has been associated with some of the most fringe and extreme views of the Republican Party for years.
• He has supported the “takings” philosophy of the extreme right, which calls for government to compensate polluters.
• He believes Roe should be “overturned,” and won the case that gagged doctors so they could not even discuss abortion with their patients.
• He opposed clean air rules and worked to help coal companies strip mine mountaintops.
• He tried to stop Congress from strengthening the Voting Rights Act.
• He worked to keep injured workers from receiving disability. And no wonder, he’s regularly been associated with corporate, far right legal groups in America – the Washington Legal Foundation, the Federalist Society, and the so-called National Legal Center for the Public Interest.

And those were the nice comments.

Freakin idiots.

Bush picks Roberts to placate Renquist?

RIP Scotty.
