PFAW on Roberts: “constitutional catastrophe”
A “catastrophe” to PFAW is a blessing for America:
From People for the American Way website:
Bush Nominates John Roberts for Supreme Court nomination raises serious concerns, questions
People for the American Way is extremely disappointed that the President did not choose a consensus nominee in the mold of Sandra Day O’Connor. John Roberts’ record raises serious concerns as well as questions about where he stands on crucial legal and constitutional issues – it will be extremely important for Senators and the American people to get answers to those questions. Replacing O’Connor with someone who is not committed to upholding Americans’ rights, liberties, and legal protections would be a constitutional catastrophe.

Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
I don’t know much about Judge Roberts, but I would guess from the PFAW reaction that Judge Roberts is not the kind of judge who would restrict liberty, but rather appears one to extend liberty to ALL Americans, including those who are not yet born.
A constitutional catastrophe, according to the PFAW would be something like the Supreme Court ruling that Bill Clinton could not run for president again because of the 22nd Amendment, even if he did change his name legally to “The President Formerly known as Bill Clinton.”
