John Roberts quacks like a duck (my sister's LTE in USA Today)
'Quacks like a duck' ...

Let us not be fooled regarding the nomination of John Roberts. If he quacks like a duck, walks like a duck and is a member of a church of ducks, and if his closest friends are ducks, then no matter how quietly he quacks, he is still a duck. Specifically, an ultra-conservative duck.

If he's confirmed, down will go women's rights, workers' rights, gay rights, citizens' rights, the environment, and down will go America. Quack, quack.

That is a great letter, to the point, with some humor. Very good.

7. Super, and it echoes Scalia's remarks
Great letter - and it totally echoes Scalia's retort to the media after his duck-hunting excursion with Cheney.
