The ONION points out John Roberts' utter inexperience in fine style:

[Nothing Without Hope]

Except for this recent DU post:

I have seen almost no one point out that

A MAN WITH ONLY TWO YEARS' EXPERIENCE AS A JUDGE AT ANY LEVEL IS NOT QUALIFIED TO BE CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE U.S. SUPREME COURT!!!!!

Here's The Onion's way of pointing this out:

Bush Nominates First-Trimester Fetus To Supreme Court

September 14, 2005 | Issue 41•37

WASHINGTON, DC—In a press conference Monday, President Bush named a 72-day-old gestating fetus as his nominee to fill the Supreme Court seat that opened following the death of Chief Justice William Rehnquist.

"Already, this experienced and capable embryo has demonstrated during his or her in utero existence a deep commitment to the core principles of the Constitution," Bush said. "It is with great pride that I nominate this unborn American patriot to the highest court in the land."

If confirmed by Congress, the bean-sized vertebrate would be the nation's first prenatal Supreme Court justice.

The unnamed fetus, who made headlines only three weeks ago when he or she was appointed to the Virginia State Supreme Court after working at a private law practice for five hours, has enjoyed a meteoric career in American jurisprudence. A remarkable prodigy who graduated from Georgetown Law School mere days after his or her neural folds fused, the nominee reportedly shares much of the conservative, pro-business philosophy of the Bush White House.

2. Onion gets it in my view. Bush has proof that the GOP can not run a govt.

So I am sure they will keep voting in the same type of men to keep trying.

chief justice earl warren was appointed to the SCOTUS without having served a single day as a judge anywhere.

5. This issue also has a piece about Halliburton getting a contract to get

the gold out of dead peoples' teeth in the hurricane area. Again, macabre and right on target. Mondy over life every time. Of course, it can't really be true, because the poor people who died in such numbers couldn't afford gold in their teeth.

In fact, Cheney's office gave an order to shunt emergency power to oil pipelines instead of to the people who needed it, so the truth is almost as bad:

6. Makes Sense to Me, But

In actuality, you don't even have to be a lawyer to be a Supreme Court Judge. Figure that out!

7. Talk about lack of experience and an unknown history!

8. Well, at least it avoids gender discrimination!
