Justice Ginsburg: Roberts right, Biden wrong

Transcript from Day 2 of Roberts' confirmation hearings.

ROBERTS: Senator, I think nominees have to draw the line where they're comfortable.

(CROSSTALK)

BIDEN: You're not applying the Ginsburg rule.

Justice Ginsburg this week.

Ginsburg also said she agreed with a position taken by federal Judge John G. Roberts during his confirmation hearing to replace the late Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist.

Roberts invoked Ginsburg when he refused to speculate on how he would rule in cases before the court."Judge Roberts was unquestionably right," Ginsburg said.

"My rule was I will not answer a question that attempts to project how I will rule in a case that might come before the court."

Heh.
