Who Should Replace O'Connor

Laura Bush told her hubby-wubby that she'd like to see a woman replace Sandra Day O'Connor on the Supreme Court. Reuters deceptively suggests that Democrats want a Hispanic person on the Supreme Court.

While I think that there are most likely several qualified women and Hispanics out there that could fill her shoes, I couldn't give two corn-filled brown turds whether the nominee is a man, woman, Asian, Hispanic, dog or mule.

As long as the person doesn't bow to Tom DeLay and Bill Frist and their crazy-ass pack of James Dobson-fellating lunatics. And as long as he/she/it doesn't become Scalia and Thomas's bitch, I'm open to just about anyone who will defend the Constitution, abortion rights and separation of church and state. And they get bonus points if they've never written anything supporting torture, anti-sodomy laws or raping the environment.

Gender and ethnicity don't matter even the tiniest bit to me as far as a Supreme Court nominee goes, and it shouldn't matter to George Bush or anyone else either.

    Very nicely put. I couldn't agree more. I don't care if the new justice has a vulva or speaks spanish, I just care that they're not batshit crazy.

    Sadly, the odds are that out of all those categories-- female, non-white, batshit crazy, etc.-- it is almost guarenteed they will be batshit crazy.
