After Bush's denouncements of "Activist Judges" and purposefully drawing attention to the record of Judge John Roberts as an example of his character, it's a little surprising to hear that Judge Roberts helped Gay Activists win a landmark decision in 1996.
John Roberts wasn't paid for his work - it was provided pro bono (free of charge) - so he must've had his heart in his work, or felt that it was a moral issue he felt strongly about. At the time, Roberts was a lawyer specializing in appellate work for Hogan & Hartson, a large D.C.-based law firm.
