Has any Dem asked Roberts about corporations?
Edited on Tue Sep-13-05 05:17 PM by sph812
I wonder if Roberts has been asked about corporations and their place in our society, especially in regard to labor and environmental laws.

*'s biggest reason to appoint Roberts is to give corporations more power. Roberts may have positioned himself well enough so far to make it seem that he's not a radical, but has anyone hit him hard on corporate power?

1. This assumes the Dems in the Senate give a shit, which they don't.
They just wish they could be the ones to bend over for corporate America, but the Republicans are better at it.

3. I agree -- what about Sarbannes?
Isn't he on Judiciary (and allowed to question Roberts)?
