Why? Are Chuck Schumer and Fat Teddy planning to go to New Orleans to help bail the city out? That will be the day.
Now, Scalia, on the other hand, would be an ideal chief justice. Most intellectually honest lawyers when confronted with a Scalia opinion must concede that, while they might not agree with Scalia, he makes a compelling argument. The same cannot be said of Clarence Thomas.
Don't use the word "shots" in conjunction with Kennedys.
Too open to flamewars.
Full Disclosure: Go ahead and use the word "splash" all you want, though.
Why doesn't this idiot just shut up? We know you can, because you did for several hours when Mary Jo drowned.
Well, consider the stress people in Louisiana have been under the last week, not to mention they have always been a tad bit hotheaded...
So I am going right out and dive for Mary Jo.,,,,,,,
I'd love for someone in the GOP to have the 'nads to say this:
"I'm today calling for Senator Kennedy to resign his seat on the Senate Judiciary Committee until such time as a thorough Senate investigation of the death of Mary Jo Kopechne is completed. Questions continue to linger about Senator Kennedy's complicity in this young woman's death. The Massachusetts investigation into the incident back in 1969 could well have been tainted by party politics in a state where the Kennedy name, and the Kennedy wealth, were used to maximum advantage. It raises serious issues of equal protection of the laws that such a shocking breach of state statutes regarding leaving the scene of an accident were taken so lightly. Would a truck driver or factory worker have gotten off so easily in the same circumstance? In recent years, many murder cases from the civil rights era have been reopened. It is time for the Senate to reopen the Chappaquddick case as a civil rights issue. Was Senator Kennedy's callous abandonment of Miss Kopechne due to hostility toward her gender? Is there evidence of emotional and psychological abuse of women in Senator Kennedy's background? This issue needs to be thoroughly investigated. Until such time, Senator Kennedy needs to withdraw from the Judiciary Committee, where the appearance of impropriety taints any role he might play there."
