"The Senate must review Judge Roberts' record to determine if he has a demonstrated commitment to the core American values of freedom, equality and fairness."
Um, Senator- are you saying no one has looked into the judge's committment to the "core American values of freedom, equality, and fairness" in his past appearances before the judicial committee or the Senate during confirmation hearings? If not, I think someone is guilty of gross negligence. Get over it, even members of your own party are stating this guy is one of the more "moderate" choices the President could have made. Now, do your job, confirm the guy, and end all the ballyhoo. Once you said he has suitable legal credentials, you said he should be confirmed- period.
