Chief Justice Rehnquist consistently countered efforts to make the law rather than interpret the law, particularly as a dissenter in Roe v. Wade, ... He demonstrated integrity by adhering to constitutional terms rather than searching for 'penumbras' and concepts outside the parameters of the Bill of Rights. We look to President Bush to nominate a replacement who meets Chief Justice Rehnquist's level of integrity and who demonstrates judicial restraint in controversial areas, including matters related to religious liberty, the sanctity of life, and family values. |

The way they were talking, we thought it was going to be the end of the world. |
