I look at this Rehquist picture and I already know what the Onion will do
Despite the Bush administration's efforts to put the Onion out of business by becoming ridicule-proof, the world keeps demanding satire.



I can already see the Onion running a picture of a skeleton in judicial robes saying "Rehnquist still hangin' in there"

He also looks a bit like a late-in-life Robert Alda here.

2. He means in terms of "You Can't Make This Shit Up..."
They are so ridiculous you can not ridicule them.

4. I keep trying...
As tasteless as a skeletal pic might be to some, we need satire to keep from screaming.

3. The long history of humanity
has proven most conclusively that we will never be ridicule-proof.
It is in our DNA. It is an intrinsic part of what makes us human.
