Brownback said he was satisfied that Roberts understands the limited role of judges --- to rule on the legitimacy of the law without making law...
So which is it, make political decisions or not make law?
I'm currently in the middle of "What's the Matter With Kansas," so I'm not feeling terribly Brownback friendly right now.
I'll let you know when I'm finished if anyone wants to discuss.
