If I Were President: Speech on Nominating a Supreme Court Justice
Posted by Frank J. at 12:35 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (9)

NOTE: This post contains naughty language, up to and including a synonym for a donkey. Yes, if I were President, I would swear more often.

Liberals and the American People, I come before you today to explain what I am seeking in a new Supreme Court Justice. Some think there needs to be special qualifications to be a member of the Supreme Court, but I would like to remind you of something:

THE CONSTITUTION IS ONLY LIKE THREE FRICK'N PAGES LONG!

Theoretically, anyone with a sixth-grade level of reading comprehension should be able to check if something is allowed by the Constitution. Instead we have all this precedent crap and who knows what else to complicate the hell out of what should be a simple thing. What's really needed here? Years and years of a legal education or just an hour reading the actual document in question here?

Some have asked if there will be litmus test based on the Roe v. Wade decision.

OF COURSE THERE WILL BE!

And it hasn't nothing to do with abortion, either. It's just that anyone who thinks that Roe v. Wade is a sane Supreme Court decision should not only not be a Supreme Court Justice, he should not be a Supreme Court janitor. I mean, come on; the majority opinion spelled out things based on trimesters! Now, simple question: Is that something out of the Constitution or something pulled out of one's ass? And should judgments on law be based on the Constitution or what comes out of one's ass?

I think we all know the answer to that.

Anyhoo, appointing a Justice is still an important thing, because it is a lifetime appointment. Then again, I can always kill them and pardon myself - yet another check and balance. And it's an option I may use if some of the more choice idiots in the Supreme Court don't decide to retire.

And that's all I had to say about that. God bless.

Yeehaawww! He can shoot the Commie 5 and then pardon himself! Then he can appoint a robot, Chomps, and Ducky. We don't need anymore than those three and Scalia and Thomas.

If I were President, I'd nominate nobody. That would be high-larious.

Some have asked if there will be litmus test based on the Roe v. Wade decision.

When they do the litmus test, what part of the nominees body do they rub the paper on? It would seem to me that different parts of the body would give different results, so it might not be such a good test after all.

Bush should resign. Then Cheney can nominate W. to go to the Supreme Court.

Then we can watch all of the fun ranting on DU and Moveon.

MD2020: I'll take you one better...Bush should nominate himself WITHOUT stepping down. Constitution doesn't forbid it, you know.

You guys prolly already have seen this, but it still cracks me up.

Howard Dean would burst a blood vessel.

DAMNED RIGHT! I'd LOOOVE to see the libs try to defend Roe on actual Constitutional grounds. Show me where the word 'trimester' or even 'fetus' shows up in the Constitution, and I'll buy you a Daniel Webster cigar.

Have to disagree with you over the Roe V Wade issue. If we limited ourselves on just what the writers of the Constitution knew about back then, then your blog site would not be considered free speech because it couldn't have existed. So the Constituion is a 'live' document, to be interpreted by the SC, just as the writers planned it to be. It has nothing to do with abortion, or free speech applying to people like Larry Flint, or any other of thousands of examples.
