Good day everyone! I just checked my email and read the latest one from NARAL Pro-Choice America, asking to demand that the White House release its documents about Roberts:
[T]he White House is stooping to new levels to keep Americans in the dark about Roberts' judicial philosophy. Despite repeated requests from Senate leaders and even historical precedents that dictate how much information the White House shares about nominees, the Bush administration continues to refuse to release records from Roberts' work as a top political lawyer in the first Bush administration.
Needless to say, I signed the petition, which you can find here if you want to sign it too.

I'm also posting another quote from the email that shows how out of touch with the average American Bush is:
Americans support Roe... National polls indicate that 65% of the public supports Roe v. Wade. In a recent Washington Post-ABC News poll, eight in ten Democrats, two-thirds of independents, and half of Republicans want to see Roe v. Wade upheld in the Supreme Court. Then why did George Bush nominate anti-choice John Roberts to the Supreme Court? Oh yeah, he doesn't care what the majority of Americans think - only what his radical right backers demand.
