Bush Calls Roberts Following Seizure

ABC News’ Jennifer Duck reports: White House Press Secretary Tony Snow told reporters during an off-camera briefing that President Bush called Chief Justice John Roberts Tuesday morning between 7:30am and 8:00am. 

When Bush asked Roberts about his health, "the Chief Justice reassured him he was doing fine," Snow said.  The President said he sounded like he was in "great spirits and doing well," according to Snow.

Roberts, 52 fell Monday at his vacation home in Maine after suffering a seizure. The seizure caused the chief justice to fall on a dock, where he sustained minor scrapes. Doctors have found no tumor, stroke or any other explanation for the seizure.

Roberts had a similar, unexplained attack in 1993.

Snow said Tuesday that the White House was aware of Roberts’ seizure in 1993 when they nominated him to the Supreme Court.
