Strengthening Constitutional Self-Government

Roberts’s youthful exuberance

This article mines some of John Roberts’s early Reagan Administration memos. As a 28 year old, Roberts wielded a sharp (and funny) pen. The good news from the memos is that he seems to have favored Bork, Posner, and Scalia, among others. Hat tip: Powerline, which also links to this article, about Roberts’s relationship with the Federalist Society. Whether he is a member or not only matters to denizens of the fever swamp.
