White House Warns Dems on Roberts Papers
AP - 37 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - The White House on Monday warned Democrats not to make extensive requests for Supreme Court nominee John Roberts' legal writings in previous Republican administrations, saying many such documents are "out of bounds." Separately, the Supreme Court nominee waved off questions about whether he was a member of a conservative legal organization.

Any senator should have the right to ask wtf they want.

Maybe we'll see Reid come back with a hot one for that.

9. Reid? I wonder....
The Dems have been so weak lately, I fear they will just go along--again.

You think this is going to bring about a filibuster? ;) Dream on....

11. Reid is a stubborn bastard
Edited on Mon Jul-25-05 07:28 PM by wtmusic
and has been warned/threatened by thugs before (like, the Mob).

Depends on the filibuster. If it looks like Bushco has something to hide, I wouldn't rule it out. High stakes here.
