George W. Bush has nominated John Roberts for the Supreme Court. What's your reaction? (7/20/05)

respondent quote
COOL LEE: John Roberts, John Roberts. I don't think I know that name. I knew a John Roberts growing up but I'm sure it's not the same guy. Wait a minute, wasn't that the guy who ran for Vice President last time and lost?
DJ YOYO JO-Z: I know a John Roberts, but it's no one you want to know. He's a gangsta that got put away for twenty years. There's no way it can be the same guy.
JENNIFER: I dated a John Roberts once, but this guy was like twenty years younger. Outside of that I'm not sure who he is or how he thinks, but knowing Bush it's either a neo-con or someone posing as a moderate...until he gets in.
SKULL MADISON: I'll go along with the choice. Dubya hasn't let us down yet. But let me say this... the President needs to stop worrying about the polls and stay on course with his far right agenda. I like it better when he just snubs the left completely just to show them we're the far right, and we can do whatever we damn well please.
COLLEGE STUDENT: Man, I don't know. It looks like someone who has supported Bush all along. That's not fair that Bush can insert any of his buddies he wants for the next thirty years or more. They should have an election for Supreme Court, but I wouldn't be surprised if that were rigged too.
BRUTUS JONES: As long as he protects my right to own a gun, then he can take away any other rights he wants.
GORE SUPPORTER: I had thought for sure that Bush was going to nominate Gore as part of a deal tied to the election fraud of 2000. I still think there was a deal - maybe it was just that Gore couldn't run in 2004, because they know he could have easily won again. The Gore thing is still gonna happen, I'm pretty sure.
