A crony?

Well, I just had a scary thought. Bush has the tendency to appoint or hire people who have helped him (or other cronies of his) in the past, like Michael Brown, former head of FEMA, or John Bolton, current US Ambassador to the UN. And we all saw how welcomed or effective there people, without a shred of experience or competence, really are.

Today, John Roberts, Bush's pick, was confirmed as Chief Justice. Will he turn out to be another crony? I know the Senators heavily scrutinized him and his work, and they all said he was quite brilliant and knowledgeable.

I also know that with Bush, you never really know for sure until it's too late.
