CWA Expects Yellow-Jello Attacks 9/15/2005 Washington, D.C.—Concerned Women for America (CWA) anticipates that Thursday’s hearings for Supreme Court Chief Justice nominee John Roberts will consist of improper questioning and groundless accusations from the Left.
“We expect leftist opponents of Supreme Court nominee Judge John Roberts who will begin testifying at today’s hearing to throw baseless and scurrilous accusations and distortions of his record against the Judge and see if anything sticks,” said Jan LaRue, CWA’s Chief Counsel.
The tone of the Democratic senators in this morning’s hearing is a much softer one, which indicates they’ve seen the handwriting on the wall. They’re realizing they can’t justify opposing him in light of the high praise Judge Roberts is continuing to receive across the board for his exceptional performance. If they do, they’ll have zero credibility when it comes to opposing the next nominee.
“But it’s a different story for the special interest groups advocating abortion, same-sex marriage, extreme environmental regulations and civil rights unknown in existing law. They’re desperate to stop his confirmation. They’ll accuse him of racist views, ‘that his confirmation will jeopardize women’s health and rights,’ and increase global warming,” LaRue concluded.
