Judge John Roberts nomination- confirm or deny?


Link
Being a centrist, I do have an opinion on this nomination of Judge John Roberts. The President deserves to have this candidate as a Supreme Court Judge. He won the last election. Those that object and didn't vote in November of 2004, be quiet and reflect on why you didn't vote. This is the consequence of that choice. Maybe if we have more consequences that upset folks, voting will become more important to more people. Now is not the time to complain. You had your chance to voice your concern then. It was clear during the election that the next Supreme Court nominations that would affect us all, would be made by the next President. So the people have spoken, at least those that voted. You'll get a chance to vote again in 2006 and again in 2008. So in the mean time take responsibility for your efforts in 2004 and the result of that effort. Find and support more centrist candidates that will be elected from all political parties in the meantime. It's your country so take some accountability for the outcomes, especially the ones you don't like, and see how you can be more involved in positive change. If you don't want to get involved and rather complain, go watch TV.
