Senator Patrick "Leaky" Leahy said he would vote against Judge Roberts if he does not pass his litmus test on abortion.
"Just as you would not have a justice nominee who said, `Well I wouldn't consider Brown vs. Board of Education settled law,' I don't see how they could get confirmed," Leahy said. "I don't see how somebody who said that they didn't consider Roe vs. Wade settled law ... I don't see how they get confirmed."
In other words to Senator Leahy opposing abortion is on the same level being a racist, and segregationist. I think the liberal Senator from Vermont owes at least half of the country an apology.
