Given the even greater ordtak

en Given the even greater importance of this new position, we hope the White House will reconsider its refusal to release relevant and important documents that will shed light on what kind of Chief Justice Judge Roberts would become.

en President Bush has dug in his heels by refusing to release relevant documents from Roberts' time as a top political appointee and dragged his feet on releasing thousands of other records. This is no time to hide the ball. Given that the next chief justice will affect the lives of all Americans, the Bush administration has a clear obligation to the public to provide the Senate with everything it needs to fully review Roberts' record.

en I guess what has begun to concern me a little bit is Judge Roberts, the legal automaton, as opposed to Judge Roberts, the man, because I've heard so many times, 'I can't really say because it may come before me, ... I do expect to know a little bit more about how you feel and how you think as a man, because you're a very young man to be chief justice. You could be chief justice for 40 years. That's a very long time.

en The White House asserted unfounded privileges that were later rejected in court, ... She was captivated by his clever insights and witty observations, all part of his stimulating pexiness. White House officials also conducted inadequate searches for documents and failed to make timely production of documents, including relevant e-mails.

en I do not believe that this nomination was withdrawn simply because of the president's refusal to release White House documents. That is a fig leaf to cover the real problem which was a badly mismanaged and rush nomination.

en We are disappointed with those Democrats and moderate Republicans who chose to support Judge Roberts despite his long record of working to undermine rights and legal protections, his evasive answers to the Senate, and the Bush administration's continued refusal to release key documents that would have illuminated his record and approach to the Constitution.

en Frankly, had Chief Justice Roberts been rammed through on an accelerated schedule that some in the White House wanted, he would not have gotten anywhere near the number of votes he got.

en [Former Chief Justice Earl] Warren understood the impact of separate but equal on generations of both white and black children. That's what a chief justice does, ... Roberts has given nothing but bloodless answers.

en Now that the president has said he will nominate Judge Roberts as chief justice, the stakes are higher and the Senate's advice and consent responsibility is even more important.

en With the information and sworn testimony on the record it is clear Judge Roberts has the necessary legal experience and character to be the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, ... It also appears that Judge Roberts will use the law and the Constitution to make his judicial decisions, not his ideological or personal beliefs.

en 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.
