Robertson, Kennedy and Howard Dean

Judge Robertson held his own today against some hot rhetoric from the left. Senators Biden and Kennedy both took their shots, but Robertson showed restraint and intelligence. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the day was questioning from Senator Feinstein about his stance on female attorneys. She made one of a series of mis-steps and miss calculations in regard to 20 year old memos. In an exchange egarding gender equity and housewives becoming attorneys Feinstein accused Robertson of being anti woman. Roberts responded that the statement was meant as a "lawyers' joke" and that he fully supports equal rights for women.
"Obvious, in the memo that I wrote to Fred Fielding that it was about whether or not it's good to have more lawyers. Whether they were from homemakers, from plumbers, from artists or truck drivers had nothing to do with it," Roberts said.
"The notion that that was my view is totally inconsistent and rebutted by my life, " Roberts said. "I married a lawyer. I was raised with three sisters who work outside the home. I have a daughter for whom I will insist at every turn that she has equal citizenship rights with her brother."

Regardless of the explanation, Democratic bull dog Howard Dean was on Hannity and Combs this evening being interviewed by Democratic lap dog Alan Combs. Dean said in a five minute interview that Robertson was anti-black, anti-hispanic and anti-woman and, for the most part, did not speak for America. I hate to break it to you Howard, but you speak for fewer Americans than almost anyone. Your vitriol will haunt the Democratic party in the next election and in 2008. If Hillary does run, you can mark my words today that Howard Dean will not be the DNC chairman.

Dean further described President Bush as the most divisive since before the Civil War. He would know divisive when he saw it, but without a liberal media, this president would be held in the same regard as FDR and Kennedy. I has oft said I am no Bush apologist, but he is a liberator in Iraq, a healer after 9-11 and a rebuilder now in Louisiana. If it were not for Fox News and the Washington Times, America would never know.

What will happen in 2008 if a Republican is elected President again? I hazzard to guess.
