Obama was wrong to have voted against Roberts

Obama is Wrong:


Reasons to agree:



  1. People on both sides of the isle, say that he is very respectful, to those with whome he disagrees.

  2. During his two year tenure on the D.C. Circuit, Roberts authored 49 opinions, eliciting only two dissents from other judges, and authoring only three dissents of his own. This shows that Roberts works well with others, and builds consensus.

  3. Roberts is one of twelve Catholic justices — out of 110 justices total — in the history of the Supreme Court.[37]

  4. His wife is an attorney and a trustee (along with Clarence Thomas) at her alma mater, the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts. He must be pretty cool to have got a smart girl like that to marry him.

  5. Roberts graduated graduating with an A.B. in history summa cum laude in three years from Harvard.

  6. Before attending Harvard Law School, was the managing editor of the Harvard Law Review,[3] and graduated with his J.D. magna cum laude.[5If that was good enough reason for Obama to be president, I guess it is good enough reason for Roberts to be Chief Justice.

  7. He represented 18 states in United States v. Microsoft. How cool is that?

  8. All of his maternal great-grandparents were from Czechoslovakia. Roberts understands immigration.

  9. He was captain of his football team and was a Regional Champion in wrestling. That is pretty cool.






Probable interest (or motivation) of those who agree:



  1. Republican Party Affiliation (40%)

  2. They agree with the argument, outside of any interest or alterior motivation (30%)

  3. Political laziness & issue crossover (15%)

  4. The desire to have more conservative judges on issues like abortion, gay marriage, etc.

  5. The desire to strengthen presidential power and weaken legislative power (not encouraging the legislature to vote against people they don't like, instead of "bad" people)
