Roberts On Romer

Specter asks Roberts about his pro bono work in the Romer case involving gay rights in Colorado. Was Roberts personally offended by his participation in the case?

Roberts: "I was asked frequently by other partners to help out and I never turned down the request. I think it's right that if there had been something morally objectionable, I suppose I would have. [But] good lawyers can argue any type of a case."
