GreenLantern predicts the next Chief Justice will be

[GreenPartyVoter]

Clarence Thomas. To counteract the NOLA prejudice arguments.

1. Ahh, the pubic hair kid.

2. Hi Ho Long Dong Silver away!

3. Oh good who is going to tell him how to decide?

4. At Least Everything Would Be Out In The Open

No fooling anyone about what's gone down.

5. I don't think Fat Tony could deal with

being passed over in favor of his dimwitted step-brother Clarence.

[Prodemsouth]

6. Oh that will do it !! We just know most African Americans love

Clarence Thomas.

[belle]

7. I'd actually rather have him than Scalia. I think. Hell, I don't know.

Scalia: smart and evil. And corrupt, on top of evil.

Thomas: possibly somewhat less evil, definitely way less smart. And way corrupt. And a total lightweight.

Decisions, decisions.

It ought to be Souter, if anyone who's already in there and still healthy. fat chance.

i expect anyone he brings in from the outside will manage to be more evil than Scalia and more corrupt than either of them, and may or may not be a total damn lightweight.

9. Thomas is a pup

He's 57. We'll be looking at a Rehnquist-length reign if that fathead gets appointed.

Scalia is 69. He smokes. Might be better to endure concentrated evil for a shorter while for a more likely shot at replacing him. No Democrat has appointed a Chief Justice since Truman.

[DefenseLawyer]

10. I don't think more evil than Scalia is possible

although Chief Justice Ashcroft could give him a run for his money.

8. I was thinking the same thing this afternoon.

Like that's really going to help his image. At least the photo ops wouldn't have to be staged.

11. Kato says Scalia

as a special thank you for the 2000 election

[DefenseLawyer]

12. Another reason I think it will be Scalia

is that Scalia is such an icon among the far right that elevating him to chief thows a bone to (and distracts a little) the Dobson crowd, so he can then put his pal Albert on the court like he has wanted to do since he got there.

13. I do believe there is a Nostradamus quatrain

that issues some grim forecast -- and reads very much as if it were talking about someone just like Clarence (you always hurt the one you love) Thomas.

Off to check the cobwebbed stacks at the Pigwarts School of Infallible Pronouncements...

14. That makes sense. He nees tutoring in all his decisions. Would make

a great patsy. They can surround him with the neocons and let her rip. Supreme court needs to be diminished too. Not fair they get left out. And I'm sure Bush will do well with the African American vote next time around.

NOT!
