Settlers in Gaza resist removal

In a day laden with emotion and history, Israeli soldiers began the evacuation of Gaza yesterday by hauling weeping Jewish settlers from their homes and synagogues, defying walls of outraged residents screaming insults and abuse.

This is an amazing spectacle - Israel enforcing ethnic cleasing on it's own people in service to the Palestinian governmentterrorists. The Chief HAS to wonder what the ultimate reaction will be to the current Israeli government when it (almost inevitably) turns out that Gaza becomes a fire base for Hamas, etc. continuing their war against the existance of the Jewish state.

It won't be a pretty picture at all!

Roberts Resisted Women's Rights

Beneath the headline, the WaPo posts a whole list of horribly conservative issues that Judge Roberts supported in the 1980's, when working for "Ronaldus Magnus" Reagan. What a dastardly PLOT of President Bush to actually have the unmitigated gall to nominate someone with conservative views! It's more than a MSM newspaper can stand!

The Chief thinks that this article constitutes the official OpOrder (Operations Order) to the liberal establishment to use for their upcoming effort to "Bork" Roberts. It's all here - the marching orders are out stand by for the snipers to start the action.

Some of the noted conservative offenses that Judge Roberts was apparently guilty of include:

In internal memos, Roberts urged President Reagan to refrain from embracing any form of the proposed Equal Rights Amendment pending in Congress; he concluded that some state initiatives to curb workplace discrimination against women relied on legal tools that were "highly objectionable"; and he said that a controversial legal theory then in vogue -- of directing employers to pay women equally to men for jobs of "comparable worth" -- was "staggeringly pernicious" and "anti-capitalist."

Check-off one to fire up the feminazis.

Roberts endorsed a speech attacking "four decades of misguided" Supreme Court decisions on the role of religion in public life.

Ooops. He called a spade a spade here. Unforgivable! Call out the ACLU!

...urged the president to hold off saying AIDS could not be transmitted through casual contact until more research was done,...

Not an unreasonable statement, based on the state of knowledge at that time.

argued that promotions and firings in the workplace should be based entirely on merit, not affirmative action programs.

SHOCKING! Employment decisions based on qualifications and merit? How dastardly a concept to the WaPo!

In October 1983, Roberts said that he favored creation of a national identity card to prove American citizenship, even though the White House counsel's office was officially opposed to the idea. He wrote that such measures were needed in response to the "real threat to our social fabric posed by uncontrolled immigration."

AH-HA! He's anti-immigrant, and no doubt a closet bigot against hispanics.

He also, the documents illustrate, played a bit role in the Reagan administration's efforts in Nicaragua to funnel assistance to CIA-supported "contras" who were trying overthrow the Marxist Sandinista government.

Supporting the contras? What's next...

In one instance, Roberts had a direct disagreement with the senator who now wields great influence over his confirmation prospects, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter (R-Pa.). In a 1983 memo, Roberts was dismissive of a "white paper" on violent crime that had been drafted by one of Specter's aides. Noting that the paper proposed new expenditures of $8 billion to $10 billion a year, Roberts wrote: "The proposals are the epitome of the 'throw the money at the problem' approach repeatedly rejected by Administration spokesmen."

Here he is opposing RINO Sen. Spector caught in the act of pumping up spending without demonstrable effect on the problem.

The article goes on with some more issues that provide more grist for the mill of the LibDonks & RINOs as they try to fire up their attack machine for the upcoming hearings.
