Least surprising headline

The Bush administration has finally released the documents about John Roberts, and boy are they shocking. From CNN: Roberts Documents Reveal a Conservative. No! I thought that Bush was going to nominate an ACLU lawyer. Instead, Bush nominatd some conservative "states rights" guy. I am very shocked.

You have to go halfway through the article before you get to the part where he argued for restrictions on habeas corpus. Really! Here is a quote: "The current availability of federal habeas corpus, particularly for state prisoners, goes far to making a mockery of the entire criminal justice system."
