The CJ has more "power" in what is brought before the court and what is not, THAT is what is scary.
Roberts as a person who has no real paper trail doesn’t scare me, the 40+YEARS he could be there scares me, whether he is right or left, putting someone in a position for that long of a time is just WRONG.
IMHO, the smartest thing Bush could have done was appointed Oconnor as CJ for this session, which would give the US more time to consider the options, she has already said she will serve until they have a replacement, and the US as a country, has WAY too much to deal with right now.
