John Roberts, just another pampered rich kid
Edited on Mon Jul-25-05 12:41 PM by devilgrrl
Hasn't a fucking clue of how most people live. Conveniently forgets organizations he's been involved with. He can afford a family which means that everyone should be able to as well... because he knows :sarcasm:

2. It's been a while since a guy used the "I don't remember" excuse
It was quite popular during the raygun years.

When they protest something like that and not "remember" something like that then just turn it around and that's the truth. :eyes: Yeah right.

7. frankly, I want to know why he's not a member
it's a professional society which has view similar to his you'd think he'd join.

and there is no record that he paid dues, by the way.
