Roberts Vows to Be a Humble Chief
Well he's either a good selection or he has started out by showing his contempt for the judicial system by lying under oath. I guess time will tell. That is if he becomes chief justice.
Regardless, John Roberts started out well today pledging to judge with humility and "without fear or favor" should he be selected for the Supreme Court. He went on to say he has no platform and Judges are not politicians who can promise to do certain things in exchange for votes. "If confirmed, I will confront every case with an open mind. I will fully and fairly analyze the legal arguments that are presented. And I will decide every case based on the record, according to the rule of law, without fear or favor, to the best of my ability." Judges must have the "humility to recognize that they operate within a system of precedent & the modesty to be open to the considered views of their colleagues.
