No, probably not. But, you should tell every RW'er you know about this.

1. here is my favorite from "over there"

"A man of Roberts' stature can pick and choose his pro bono work. He didn't marry until he was past 40. Is the wife a beard?"

:woohoo:

2. Wouldn't this be funny if it caused the REPUBLICANS to filibuster.....

...the nomination??

3. Could happen. They are, to put it mildly, stunned

May be lots of fun, after all. Who knows, his marriage may have been one of convenience to advance his RW credentials and thus career. His kids are adopted. Stay tuned...

6. My boss had been living with his girlfriend for ten years...

and when he got a job with Republicans on the Hill, they made them get married.

7. Interesting that the NYT is supposedly doing a story on the adoption

of their kids. Probably has nothing to do with this "angle," but curious timing

4. Daily Kos has a good discussion going on that

5. He's a pro-Gay segregationist? This guy is all over the map!

Who knows what he's gonna support next? He's a flip-flopper! He has no moral compass! He's wishy-washy! He's cuh-RAZY!

8. more ammo for the Coulters of the world

who think Roberts is a Souter in disguise, but is more likely another Rehnquist from all I've read. Bringing this up makes him look more moderate & appealing to that Gang of 14 senators.
