In the groups I belong to, you either pay the dues yearly, or you are dropped from membership. If I want to go to the meetings, I can make a reservation and go...but not enjoy membership privileges ....Including voting. My guess is that he did belong in the 90's, but no longer does, or a paid membership would have been found. The Dems are desperate, and would have found it. I would be proud to go to their meetings, and would be proud to be a member. BTW, heard today that Schumer, Kennedy et all, have requested over 75,000 +++!!! pieces of paper from the various government organizations about the work Roberts did under the Reagan Administration. 75,000 +++ pieces of paper, and they still want more **** IMO, there should be NO copies requested that weren't requested of Ginsberg AND Breyer!! Or any of the other Supremes before they were confirmed. or any of the general public wants to go to the meetings, they can. They are just not members. **.........That's more than $7,500 for EACH person who gets a set of these papers**.....HOW MANY people get these papers? It's too bad that each of these folks don't have to pay for these sets for themselves. Instead, they expect taxpayers to do it. What they should do is just make a CD of all the sheets, and if the folks who want paper copies, they can print them themselves on on their nickle. They will have the CD's to work with.

I agree. On the one hand, this seems so inconsequential and the Federalist Society, if he was a member, is hardly a radical organization bent on perverting the Constitution. (Or is it? Fess up CB, are and the others attending meetings to devise some nefarious plot to be carried out once Roberts is sworn in? ;-) On the other hand, I have a hard time believing that someone as mentally agile as Roberts is supposed to be cannot recall anything.
