Patterico and Confirm Them both noted the following extremely odd comment from Senator Chris Dodd (D-Honalee, apparently) in re John Roberts’ chances at confirmation to the SCOTUS:
The open-ended question for us clearly is what are his views about some of the basic values, the equal protection clause, the privacy clause of the Constitution.
Everybody sing! “One of these things is not like the others, one of these things just isn’t the same…”.
While we’re making up Constitutional Clauses out of thin air, Senator, may I ask that you be the first lawmaker subjected to the Punch Congresspeople In The Face clause? Will you support my interpretation of the Fire John McCain Into The Stratosphere On A Rocket-Powered Ottoman clause?
Sheesh. The denizens of the “great” state of Connecticut ought to be hanging their heads in shame over electing this idiot.
Mark Instead of an Exclamation Point… Learning to Fly Six Degrees Of Separation Lifting the Rock Positively Palmeiro While We’re At It, Sen. Dodd, How About The Hot Fu… Look, It’s A Philadelphia Television Show That’s Not Hack! Retrospect call for help Hackett Update Phormer Phils
Are you insinuating that the “Fire John McCain Into The Stratosphere On A Rocket-Powered Ottoman” isn’t real?
It’s real, all right. It’s in there next to the 31st Ammendment, otherwise known as the “Everyone Gets A Zagnut Bar!” Ammendment.
