Whenever I talk about the government I mean the government, not hating the individual people. I do however hate Bush, and I don't use the word hate lightly. I'm not a political person and Bush is the first person in politics I've genuinely come to despise. It's not a Republican vs Democrat thing as I'm an independent. I can go on about Bush but I wont.Originally Posted by desslock
In regards to Roberts he might be a totally cool guy. He might be a closet case ( which I strongly believe, no joke ) I'm just trying to raise awareness as to where he really might be coming from. When a person doesn't speak out about their beliefs, you have to go by their previous actions, and comments, to find out what they're about. I am strongly concerned about him casting androgyny, and children born to unwed mothers, in a negative light. I'm strongly concerned that he labels children born to unwed mothers as "illegitimate". His comments show a strong lack of compassion, and empathy for people, which I find disturbing. He was younger at the time and people change. He is most likely a different person now then he was back in the Reagan years, for better or worse I just don't know.
Will the world come to an end if Roberts is on the Supreme Court, no. Is Roberts a nice guy, probably. Is there reason to question why Bush picked this particular person, yes. Am I, like other responsible citizens, trying to find out who this guy is and how he can impact the future of America, yes. That's all.
Do you dislike the people who appointed him?
