Title: Chief Justice John Roberts: How Gay Is He? (and don't forget to check out the photo)

Ever since President Bush announced his selection of Judge John G. Roberts, Jr., as his Supreme Court nominee, speculation over whether Judge Roberts might be gay has run rampant throughout the blogosphere. See, e.g., Althouse, Law Dork, and Wonkette. UTR readers have also flooded A3G's inbox with emails citing the following "evidence" that Judge Roberts is gay:

1. Despite being handsome, brilliant, rich, and nice -- in other words, prime marriage material -- Judge Roberts didn't get married until the relatively late age of 41.

2. With all due respect to the perfectly attractive Mrs. Jane Sullivan Roberts, some UTR readers -- not A3G -- have commented that the #5 Superhottie of the Federal Judiciary could have "married someone hotter." According to a UTR correspondent who used to work at Hogan & Hartson, Judge Roberts's former law firm, "many of the older [Hogan] attys are married to good-looking 20-somethings after having dumped their first wives."

3. Judge and Mrs. Roberts have adopted rather than biological children. (The "theory" behind this fact, it seems, is that we therefore have no "proof" of the consummation of the Roberts' marriage.)

4. Judge Roberts has associated with gay people in the past:

(a) As everyone knows by now, he did pro bono work on behalf of gay rights activists, helping out colleagues in their preparation of court filings and oral argument in Romer v. Evans, 517 U.S. 620 (1996).

(b) While Judge Roberts was at Harvard, his pre-law advisor was William LaPiana, a law professor at New York Law School and an openly gay man.

(c) One UTR reader commented that "Roberts has had at least one gay (male) clerk while sitting on the D.C. Cir. I suspect at least one other clerk as well."

Note: A3G has conducted her own mini-investigation into this claim, and she is uncertain of its accuracy. She has accounted for (almost) all of the nine clerks that Judge Roberts has had during his time on the D.C. Circuit, and the clerks that she knows of are all married to or dating people of the opposite sex, or otherwise not believed to be gay. (But if you have the name, rank and serial number of any Roberts clerk who is openly gay -- A3G isn't interested in outing anyone -- please email her.)

Update: It appears that Judge Roberts may have had one gay clerk. At the request of this clerk, however, A3G has deleted a reader comment referring to this clerk by name. Furthermore, she has disabled comments on this post. She thanks you for your consideration.

5. Finally, in terms of evidence of gayness, let's not leave out the notorious plaid pants.

So there's certainly some grist for the "Judge Roberts is gay" rumor mill in the nominee's past (even if much of it is of dubious value). And now, tomorrow's edition of New York Times will throw more fuel on the fire, in the form of this rather interesting article about Judge Roberts's time at Harvard and what it was like to be a campus conservative there during the 1970's.

There are two noteworthy aspects of this article from the "John Roberts Is Gay" point of view. First, check out the provocative third paragraph -- surprisingly high placement, essentially part of the lede -- of Janny Scott's piece:

"Conservatives were like the queers on campus," said Eric Rofes, a classmate of Judge Roberts who later became an organizer on gay issues. "People made fun of them. They mocked them and saw them as jokers or losers. I don't think in the moment many people realized this was the start of an ascending movement. People felt it was like the last cry of the 1950's."

Second, directly to the left of the foregoing paragraph in the online version of the article is a photograph (courtesy Don Scherer) showing Judge Roberts hanging out on Martha's Vineyard with two handsome male friends, Don Scherer and Richard Lazarus. Call Article Three Groupie crazy -- you wouldn't be the first -- but the picture strikes her as pretty "gay-looking."

If you question A3G's basis for deeming this picture "gay-looking," check out the photo for yourself (below right), and then read this (amusingly unhinged) email from a UTR reader:

Roberts_scherer_lazarus_1John Roberts is gay! Look at those smiling buff friends snuggled next to the next Supreme Court Justice on Martha's Vinyard displaying the groumet meal they just made, and THEY will tell you. Now let's hope Roberts is actually confirmed before he's outed like a certain New Jersey Governor! Some legacy for Christian hero W. -- seating the first GAY Supreme Court Justice!* This is SO GREAT!

Oy gay! Are we perhaps getting a little carried away with all of our rumor-mongering concerning Judge Roberts's sexual orientation? After all, the pic was taken on Martha's Vineyard, not Fire Island. (bwaaaahaa!) And for the record, Scherer is married, as is Lazarus.(as though there is no such thing as a beard).

More seriously, all of the "Is John Roberts gay?" speculation strikes A3G as pretty pointless, since it's doubtful that we'll ever get a definitive answer to the question.

It's highly unlikely that Judge Roberts will show up in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on September 6 and declare, "I am a gay American." We can hazard all sorts of guesses about Judge Roberts's tastes and proclivities, but we'll never know for sure.

To sum things up, as A3G previously stated, "Is Judge John Roberts gay? Hmm, who knows?" Unless some new and truly compelling information emerges, let's just leave it at that. As far as A3G is concerned, the question of Judge Roberts's possible homosexuality -- like the matter of his two adopted kids -- should be shoved back into the closet. 'Nuff said!

Update: Professor Althouse, despite being on vacation, had some interesting and funny comments to offer on the Times piece. A3G is inclined to agree with her: a good case can be made that the NYT is deliberately making Judge Roberts look gay. And yet, as Professor Althouse notes, "the deniability is intact as ever. It's just three men with a pie... and a mustache... and a glow."

* Uh, who ever said that Judge Roberts -- if he is in fact gay, and if he is ultimately confirmed to the Court -- would be the first gay justice? Certainly not Wonkette: "Okay, serious now: We don't actually think Roberts is gay. We totally wish he was, though! Someone needs to keep Souter company."

And Wonkette may not be alone in her suspicions concerning the #4 Superhottie of the Federal Judiciary. Check out the Oyez biography of Justice Souter, which describes him as "[a] man of unusual and peculiar sensibilities." What exactly does this mean -- is that what they're calling them these days? (It's a bit of a mouthful; A3G prefers the more pithy "friend of Judge Wardlaw.")

Speaking of Justice Souter, A3G is looking forward to the publication next month of David Hackett Souter, an in-depth biography of the justice by the prolific Professor Tinsley E. Yarbrough. The book will reflect Professor Yarbrough's extensive research into Justice Souter's professional and personal background. A3G sincerely hopes that Professor Yarbrough, just because he's a respectable academic, won't shy away from answering the questions that enquiring minds want to know...


Poster Comment:

Note the date...and immediate suspicions even then. The lesbo writer (A3G) of this article SEVEN years ago tries to diffuse and discredit them, but to no avail. The evidence is NOT so "dubious" as she claimed at the time and especially NOW.

Let's also consider the suspicions of our closeted GOP President Dubya Bush - who had fake reporter - the openly queer Jeff Gannon (whose naked pictures have appeared on a number of gay escort websites) over to the White House dozens of times. ALONE. It was of course Dubya who foisted Roberts on conservatives.

Do these revelations and record of Roberts gay-friendly past provide insight into Judge Roberts' siding with 2 Communists and and 2 lesbian-Communists in the 0bumaCare Decision that happens to expand the Fedgoob greatly?

Look - here's the bottomline:

Queers have totally infested and corrupted America's institutions - from the Globalists' cabals and ad hoc shadow government to the Oval Office to Congress to the Supreme Court, to the Media (the Ministry of Propaganda) to "Entertainment"...

The agenda of Queers/Gays, Communists, Atheists, the governing Elites, and basically - Heathens who worship themselves as their own "God" - is to toss all vestiges of Christianity, justice, the truth, and the Bible-based virtues of the American Founder off a cliff.

Dubya's homosexual SC Justice Roberts is NOT a "conservative," and never has been; Coincidentally, homosexual Prez 0buma's appointees Sotomayor and Kagan are LESBIAN. So now we've got THREE homosexuals on the Supreme Court, three Jews and six Catholics three of whom CAN definitely be conservative)....

Oh...and the SC includes ZERO PROTESTANTS; In a country comprise mostly of Protestant Christians. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?? This is more than an odd curiosity and coincidence; It's conspicuously purposeful. Go ahead and draw your own conclusion why this is... And...and...btw - what ever happened to "diversity"??

I've been saying Roberts is as queer as a 3 dollar bill ever since he was nominated by Boy Jorge. His daddy put the homo Suitor on the court,and he answered with Roberts after having his lesbian choice kicked back.

Homosexuals are in high positions all over our government precisely because they are easily controlled by blackmail.

And the fault for this lies squarely on the shoulders of the fundie Christians that have demonized them and driven them into hiding. If it wasn't for the fear of exposure and losing their careers and families,there would be nothing to blackmail them over.

The Soviets were very successful recruiting spies and agents by targeting homosexuals. I think that whole Eton circle of British spies were homosexuals that were recruited by Soviet agents when they were in college. The Soviets even chose their careers for them and worked behind the scenes to keep getting them promoted.

Much like the international bankers have been doing with America since the end of WW-2.

Are you trying to deny there are a lot of highly placed homosexuals in our government,or that they have been blackmailed into following the desires of their masters?

Or are you denying that the bigotry towards homosexuals in housing,jobs,and every other aspect of their lives by the various religions has had anything to do with this?

Pete, you need to stick your head out the window because the times "hava changed." Christians, especially Christian business owners are being sued for silly things like refusing to photograph a gay wedding. Then there was the "Just Cookies" Christian owner who was sued using a city law because he refused to make rainbow cupcakes for a gay pride event. The issue was not the rainbow color and discrimination of gays, the dude just made cookies like his business name indicated. Then there is the SLPC encouraging the DHS to black list Christian and secular political organizations from fighting against gay causes. There is an active campaign by the so called Human Rights Foundation (a gay 'rights' organization) to silence any opposition by getting the SLPC and DHS to call those opposed to gay marriage and gay education in schools and gay adoption as 'extremists' that should be on a watch list. So who is doing the silencing and intimidation? And just recently, let us not forget the atheists. An atheist is suing a restaurant because it gave the Sunday morning church crowd a 10% discount if they showed a church, any church bulletin. The atheist in question stated he did it because he did not like the perceived self righteousness of the restaurant owner and the church people of the county. So how libertarian is that? A business owner cannot even give out discounts to compete with other business owners. Thought that was entrepreneurship.

Please catch up with what is actually happening.

And I agree with you that sort of thing is every bit as wrong as discriminating against them.

It's even as un-Constitutional. If you can't make up your own mind about who you want to associate with or do business with,where is the guaranteed Freedom of Association right?

Then there was the "Just Cookies" Christian owner who was sued using a city law because he refused to make rainbow cupcakes for a gay pride event.

Let me ask you this. Do you agree with me that it was un-Constitutional for him to be sued for this? And even more un-Constitutional given that it was an organ of government (city) suing him?

IF you do agree,riddle me this. Why didn't some of the rich fundie churches or individuals cough up the money to fight this discrimination in court?

I agree and Christian lawyers did provide representation and funding in this case and in others. The main group helping out Christian business owners, students and teachers is the ACLJ:

Led by Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow, the ACLJ focuses on constitutional and human rights law worldwide. Based in Washington, D.C., with affiliated offices in Israel, Russia, Kenya, France, Pakistan, and Zimbabwe, the ACLJ is pro-life and dedicated to the ideal that religious freedom and freedom of speech are inalienable, God-given rights for all people. The ACLJ engages legal, legislative, and cultural issues by implementing an effective strategy of advocacy, education, and litigation that includes representing clients before the Supreme Court of the United States and international tribunals around the globe.

Other groups are the Christian Legal Society and Alliance Defense Fund. In most cases all these organizations front the bill from donations given by Christians in the USA and other countries. Most recently, the aforementioned organizations (which are Christian based) have supported student and teacher free speech cases in school districts throughout the USA.

So yeah, the left is pounding 1st Amendment free speech in every corner of America and Christians are forking out a lot of dough to defend other Christians and Jews in legal cases. It is all part of the Left's campaign to silence opposing speech and ideas. Christians are just one of their targets. You know well the others.
