Nowhere to Run, Something to Hide?

Either Roberts is good enough to be confirmed, or he is as ugly as the giant, hairy mole you know is on Dick Cheney's ass and will not be confirmed. A Supreme Court justice is nothing more than a man and he cannot be perfect. Democrats cannot block him if there are a couple stains on his record (although racism and anti-privacy are pretty bad). The least you can do is be honest about who he is and get on with it. Instead, we have this:

Thrown on the defensive by recent revelations about Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts Jr.'s legal work, White House aides are delaying the release of tens of thousands of documents from the Reagan administration to give themselves time to find any new surprises before they are turned into political ammunition by Democrats.

Delaying the release of papers in order to give the GOP more time to arm itself and the Democrats less time to get through the documents is politics. It is neither forthright nor honest and frankly, it is not democratic. What does Bush do whenever someone does something he does not like? He accuses them of using politics, as if he is above that. Well delay your response to this, Bush.
