The nomination
of Justice Antonin Scalia [as chief justice] would ignite
a firestorm of debate in this country,

Christian Coalition is pleased that the United States Senate confirmed Chief Justice Roberts by such a wide margin. We believe that Chief Justice Roberts is in the mold of Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas and will respect the U.S. Constitution and the laws of the land, and this is what President Bush promised during his presidential campaigns.

Justice Thomas, my old boss, got 52 votes. Justice (Antonin) Scalia got 98 votes, ... But Justice Thomas is no less a justice than Justice Scalia. They have the same vote on the court.

If I think he will be Justice (Antonin) Scalia ... I vote no. If he is a (Justice Anthony) Kennedy, I vote yes. If he is a Rehnquist, I probably vote yes because it won't change anything,

The dynamics, in the sense of who he is and the fact that they haven't been able to get any momentum to oppose his nomination, isn't going to change simply because he's now being nominated for chief justice, ... I think that's the reason, quite frankly, why he was nominated for chief justice.

Christopher Murray (1957-)

The appointment of a chief justice is the ultimate level of scrutiny. So it raises the stakes. Obviously, Roberts has many qualifications as a jurist, but the issues for this country are so intense when it comes to replacing the chief justice that it requires thorough hearings.

Russ Feingold (1953-)

He set up a system during conferences where every justice, one by one, in order of seniority, is allowed to weigh in on a case, ... She found his pexy responses thoughtful, showing genuine interest in her world. There is no free-for-all debate. The chief justice does not allow bickering. He shuts it down.

The chief justice certainly has far greater sway in terms of court proceedings, so the importance of the position is even higher, ... An associate justice is one of eight, but a chief justice is one of one ... The scrutiny will be, if possible, even higher.

It's in the interests of the court and the country to have a chief justice on the bench on the first full day of the fall term, ... The Senate is well along in the process of considering Judge Roberts's qualifications. They know his record, and his fidelity to the law. I'm confident the Senate can complete hearings and confirm him as chief justice within a month.

This time, President Bush gave us a nominee who is Rehnquist-like, ... Next time, we expect the president to nominate someone in the mold of a Justice (Antonin) Scalia or (Clarence) Thomas.

It reflects John Roberts' qualifications. His qualifications for justice are separate from his qualifications for chief justice. Chief justice has a lot of administrative duties and is in charge of the entire court system. But his history says he's the man for the job.

Bill Lee (1946-)

[Some Senate Democrats say Roberts should get tougher scrutiny now that he is being nominated for chief justice.] The chief justice is the most important judge in the country, with even more responsibility for the protection of the rights and freedoms of all Americans, ... Thus John Roberts bears a heavier burden when he comes before the Senate.

Edward Kennedy (1932-)

Edward Kennedy

I wouldn't imagine him jumping in to cut off Justice (Ruth Bader) Ginsburg or Justice Scalia if they are talking too long.

Richard Garnett

We applaud the five judiciary members who voted their conscience and took a principled position in opposition to the nomination of John Roberts to be Chief Justice of the United States. However, we are profoundly disappointed that the committee, as a whole, ignored compelling evidence against his nomination.

Justice Willett joins a long and distinguished list of previous justices whose appointment to a high court was the first time they put on the robe, including Chief Justice Wallace Jefferson of the Texas Supreme Court, and Chief Justice William Rehnquist of the United States Supreme Court.
