These Very Same People Were Surprised To Find That, Despite Having Read Dostoevsky, Laura Bush Was Still A Horrible Person

But abortion rights groups immediately criticized the remarks [by AG Gonzales, that Roberts could vote to overturn Roe V. Wade], saying they amounted to evidence that Roberts is more conservative in his views than publicly portrayed by the Bush administration.

"They are coming clean on how meaningless his evasive 2003 testimony was," Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, said in a statement. "It's now even clearer than before that the far-right activists who've been turning handsprings in celebration of Roberts's nomination are getting exactly what they wanted: a proven activist opponent of personal freedoms like a woman's right to choose."

Christ, NARAL -- what ever gave you the idea that Bush would nominate someone who held antithetical beliefs? Clearly, someone in that organization has been internalizing Kate Millett:

We are naïve and moralistic women. We are human beings. Who find politics a blight upon the human condition.

PS: We expect that when Bush told you that Rick Santorum was "an inclusive man," you believed that, too.

UPDATE: We should stress that, regardless of NARAL's idiocy, we would be leery of Roberts on the bench -- should it be established that he has anti-Roe tendencies. But until the confirmation hearings, however, all this is speculation and not much more.
