The Fry Cook Rule

You are Manager of a McDonalds, hiring a new fry cook. You need answers to two questions: Do you understand the job? Are you willing to do the job?

For a Supreme Court appointment, the two questions are: Do you understand the Constitution? Will you enforce the Constitution?

...a Senator smart enough to ask the right questions (yes, Virginia, there are a few smart and honest Senators), could inquire whether the nominee agrees with Madison, Hamilton and Jay in the Federalist. He might even ask the nominee to explain what Thomas Jefferson meant when he referred to the federal judiciary as “the most dangerous branch.”

BRAVO!
