Bill Clinton For Chief Justice of SCOTUS
vanity | 4 September 2005 | Vanity

One of the unfortunate diseases of the body politic has been the increasing politicalization of the US Supreme Court. This was not caused by conservatives; however, perhaps it should be solved by a conservative President.

One outstanding chance is now upon us. Most likely, President Bush will take the safe road and go through the political gauntlet and appoint a known conservative judge. What we really need is a break in the partisanship of the appointment process. Nominating former President Clinton would give everyone pause and begin a process where politicians (mostly, but not exclusively Democrats) can cease making efforts to please narrow interest groups in the selection process.

I know former President Clinton has personal flaws. I also know his reputation for politically catering to the pro-choicers and so forth. If any of you know a successful politiican, you know how much many of them hate being jerked around by special interest groups. I do believe Clinton began as a centrist in his party and did sign the welfare reform bill and so forth.

I could give his other qualifications, but I will leave it here.

You are kidding - right?

It would certainly one up the Hildabeast. Her dreams of the Presidency would be over, but we'd have to put up with Bill in the spotlight til he died. UGH!
Wonder if she'd proclaim herself Co-Chief Justice?
Thanks for making me consider it but I'll pass. I want them both out of the spotlight.

He'd have to wrest the robe from Hillary, the Co-Chief Justice. What a fight that would be!

Sure, the guy who raped Juanita Brodderick and masturbated in the Oval Office sink after doing strange things with his cigar - - ah, nevermind.

Your thread is a joke, right?

He'd make a good chief judge of a wet T-shirt contest, so long he was tied to his chair, or maybe - and I'd vote for him on this one, and it'scertainly job he'd prefer - America's Best Cheeseburger or Best Jelly onut.

Manager of the Hooters on Martha's Vinyard.

"One of the unfortunate diseases of the body politic has been the increasing politicalization of the US Supreme Court."

And your cure for this disease is to name a politician as Chief Justice?

With Bill Clinton, it's easy to be succinct. What part of "cigar" don't you understand :)

I'm all for the idea except for one proviso: BJ would have to recuse himself in any sexual harassment cases which may come before the court.
