Let's talk about Roberts. I'm going to tell you something that you're not going to hear anywhere else, that you must pay attention to. It's well known that Roberts, unfortunately for him, has suffered from epileptic seizures. Therefore he has been on medication. Therefore neurologists will tell you that medication used for seizure disorders, such as epilepsy, can introduce mental slowing, forgetfulness and other cognitive problems. And if you look at Roberts' writings you can see the cognitive dissociation in what he is saying," Michael Savage said on his radio program this evening.

Could have sworn that Dubya said Roberts was one of the best legal minds of his generation when he nominated him....

My guess is that anything Roberts writes as a Supreme Court Justice is co-written with his clerks so the writing itself should not be the problem. Though in reality I think Savage is saying Robert's writing is not logical (not that the writing is bad).
I think this reasoning is grasping at straws. I think Roberts was worried about the reputation of the court and that was probably the biggest influence on his decision. He didn't want the court to been seen as really political, like Roe v. Wade or Gore v. Bush.

Yep.
Conservative pundits didn't have a problem with Roberts on the Citizens United ruling (which, I don't like but believe was the right constitutional ruling).

If this is really such a big issue for the right wing, why wasn't it brought up at his confirmation hearing??
