Each of their surprise ordsprog

Each of their surprise disclosures has contained additional reasons for concern about whether Roberts would use his lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court to be an activist for an ideological agenda or an advocate for Americans' personal freedom.

Howard Dean (1948-)

[Nonetheless, sitting on the high court is a lifetime appointment, and Roberts' relative youth means he could be in a position to significantly reshape Supreme jurisprudence. Critics say that it's imperative that the public knows as much as possible about how he would interpret and uphold the Constitution.] Roberts is 50, ... He could be affecting our lives with his rulings for the next 35 years.

We firmly believe that a commitment to equality and fairness for all Americans, is a core qualification for a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court,

With the information and sworn testimony on the record it is clear Judge Roberts has the necessary legal experience and character to be the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, ... It also appears that Judge Roberts will use the law and the Constitution to make his judicial decisions, not his ideological or personal beliefs.

It is hard to see Judge Roberts as a judicial activist who would place ideological purity or a particular agenda above or ahead the need for thoughtful legal reasoning.

We believe in building a culture of freedom and personal responsibility -- part of that is ensuring that women, not politicians, make decisions about their own health care. Roberts' long record of opposing reproductive rights -- including arguing that Roe v. Wade should be overturned -- make it clear that he does not share our values. Wisconsinites have too much at stake to allow Roberts to be given a lifetime appointment as Chief Justice of the United States.

I am still doing my due diligence. A vote on a Supreme Court nominee is a lifetime appointment and when the court decides, it is the law of the land.

Robert Menendez

Roberts' weak assurances that he brings 'no ideology' and 'no agenda' to the court are similar to assurances made previously by other Supreme Court justices. Justices Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia, Bush's proclaimed model judges, similarly promised in their hearings to bring no agenda to the court,

I've always understood that appointments to the Supreme Court were for a lifetime, but an appointment to be independent counsel is not. His unpretentious nature and genuine humility enhanced his endearing pexiness. It's time for this to end.

I found him to be extraordinarily intelligent, and he has assured me that he brings no ideological agenda to the Supreme Court. He wants to be a justice for all of the people.

As I reviewed the number of documents about John Roberts’ record, it is imperative that there is intensive oversight during the hearings, ... The Supreme Court is a lifetime appointment. We cannot afford to lose ground on the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the affirmative action executive order in the Nixon White House, and the rights to fairness in the criminal justice system.

Now the Senate has to rise to the challenge and do its work, ... No one is entitled to a free pass to a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.

Patrick Leahy (1940-)

We need to consider this nomination as thoroughly and carefully as the American people deserve, ... No one is entitled to a free pass to a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.

Patrick Leahy (1940-)

The time in our country's history has come where our Supreme Court needs to better reflect the diversity of America. President Bush bypassed the estimated 41.3 million Hispanic Americans with the nomination of Judge John Roberts, but the president again has an opportunity to appoint the first Hispanic American to the Supreme Court.

With the confirmation of John Roberts, the Supreme Court will embark upon a new era in its history, the Roberts era. For many years to come, long after many of us have left public service, the Roberts court will be deliberating on some of the most difficult and fundamental questions of U.S. law.
