John Roberts gave a "Lawyer's Answer" to every important question
Edited on Fri Sep-16-05 12:16 PM by Sandpiper
That is, he says a lot, but never actually gives an affirmative or negative response to the original query.

It's a nifty little rhetorical device used to fool the untrained ear.

This guy is a total W-E-A-S-E-L. His evasiveness and lack of candor on questions about basic issues lead this law pup to believe he's a political partisan using his lawyerly skills to try and fly under the radar.

He's William Rehnquist minus 30 years.
