Mixed Signals: Roberts Took Liberal Portion of Red Meat by Scott Ott (2005-08-05) -- In a revelation which further confused advocates on the right and left, a new Freedom of Information Act release shows that Supreme Court nominee Judge John Roberts once took liberal portions of red meat at a non-partisan fundraising event. "You can't nail this guy down ideologically," said one Republican strategist. "He seems to be against civil rights, but helped defend homosexual rights. He's a right-wing hack who tried to save a murderer from the death penalty. And now we learn of his mysterious political behavior at meal time." Information about the 'buffet gate' incident comes from the diary of Judge Robert's wife, who penned her concern that her husband had piled his plate with medium-rare roast beef at a non-political dinner. White House spokesman Scott McClellan said, "There's no surprise here. Red meat is part of a balanced diet, and one liberal portion doesn't make a man a glutton nor a strict carnivore."
