For a late April Fools joke - the President could always nominate Sarah Palin as SCOTUS.

[TheBigotBasher]

Any nomination that the President makes is going to be opposed by Republicans so it would just be hilarious to see them oppose Palin. The remaining PUMA bigots wouldn't know what way round to wear their sheets.

Hizzbull or whatever the PUMAs call that site would claim it is all part of some commie Muslim plot to silence the half baked Alaskan.

Nothalfbigoted would claim that there was a whitey tape featuring Michelle Obama and Sarah Palin (ps Flowbee Johnson was mocked the other day for the whitey tape on the Daily Show).

Teabaggers would end up spilling a different kind of warm yellow water based liquid over their teabags and the Senate Rethug Leadership would go into melt down trying to argue why she is not qualified.

She would be a horrible choice in reality but good for the laughs.

1. Great idea - then in six months when she quits he can put a real judge in there

[LeftinOH]

2. The job requires a law degree -which SP doesn't have- but that wouldn't stop

righties from thinking she's perfectly qualified anyway.

[SteppingRazor]

4. Actually, the job doesn't require a law degree.

Technically, anyone can be nominated to the Supreme Court.

3. She'll need a copy of SCOTUS For Dummies

[Deep13]

6. She could just read the "People United" decision. nt

7. Read?

That's liberal elist educamashum rubbish.

[Deep13]

8. Is there a comic book version?

:shrug:

5. Would this be an attempt to make Thomas look like a genius in camparison? nt

9. I believe she would have to be a lawyer, not just KNOW some....nt

[TheBigotBasher]

11. I don't think you do need to be a lawyer.

Anyway she can see lawyers from her house.

[old mark]

14. Well, that might be OK, then, especially if it turns out she really is that

Deborah person in the bible.

Probably be a good thing to have an OT figure on the SC.

10. Oh come on! Everybody knows that the SCROTUS is just

another oblique reference to testicles, kind of like tea-bagging. Not falling for that one again.

:silly:

(excerpt from talk show)

Those liberals can't even spell scrotum right, and why do they keep capitalizing it? It's like they're shouting "balls!". Really, what is their obsession with testicles?

(simpers, giggles, wiggles)

12. She'd just quit.
