Former federal judge Robert Bork dies
Conservative judge Robert Bork died early Wednesday at the age of 85 at his home in Virginia, two sources close to his family tell CNN today.
In 1987, President Ronald Reagan nominated Bork as a Supreme Court justice, only to have the nomination fall apart in a contentious confirmation battle after left-leaning groups opposed Bork's conservative judicial philosophies.

Rest in peace.
It wasn't Bork's conservative judicial philosphies that killed his nomination. It was his role as trigger-man in Watergate's "Saturday Night Massacre."
The man had a judicial philosophy that makes Antonin Scalia look like Earl Warren, and his recent pronunciamentos were worse than that. I'm sorry he's dead but very, very glad he never made it onto the Supreme Court.
Exactly right, scarf.
My sympathies to the family. It's never easy to lose someone.
When the loved one is 87, the family should be prepared already.
I have no respect for so called conservative judges. Not after they supported the idea of torturing and punishing foreigners without even basic steps to ascertain if they are guilty or innocent.
Now he's a good conservative judge.
any passed conservative judge is a good judge
I'm sick of the politically correct atmosphere where we give everyone "respect" no matter how they treated other people in life. Robert Bork by all accounts was a man who pretty much had no regard for the rights of other human beings. May he rot in hell if there is one, good riddance.
Amen to that

Some hateful comments. What a sad people we have become.
No it's just no one cares about some nobody conservative. Part of the reason this country has regressed instead of progressed is from people like this
Not sad. Absolutely pathetic. Reprehensible. Intolerant and hateful miscreants.
But this guy's injected psuedo scientific economic theory into the judiciary. His way of thinking has done immeasurable damage to our country.
That, being said, I have a tone more respect for Bork than I do for Scalia. Bork was at least consistent in his reasoning. Scalia is just a word-smith and sophist.
So what?
I didn't know that he was an adviser to Mitt.
Makes me even happier that Mitt did not win if he selected an ancient, right wing, judicial extremist as an adviser.
I'm saddened. Saddened that it is Robert Bork passing and not Antonin Scalia.
very self exposing...hate
Crewel to say – but true
the word is spelled "cruel."
A bad judge who no one will remember. Gone with the wind.
Next to Posner, Bork was, for better or worse (read worse) the most important judge of the last 40 years.
a tragic loss of a great man and a wise judge. It a sad day when all that can be said is nasty about a mans death. My prayers are with his family.
A dangerous ideologue
The posts from the left are mean vicious and cruel. Normal in other words.
