I saw part of [new U.S. Supreme Court Chief] John Roberts’ Senate hearing on the news. And I think like most people, I am a little confused. He seemed to be evading alot of the questions–even when he agreed to answer them. In particular, he claims he is not an ideologue. What exactly did he mean by this? From what I’ve heard of him, and from the position George W. Bush was in a desperate hurry to fill (i.e., Chief Justice), I think he is very ideologically conservative. But he claims he is not an ideologue. What exactly does he mean when he uses that word?
Thank you in advance to all who reply
