Justice William Jefferson Clinton Anyone?
   


Following in the Taft model...

He is emminently qualifed as an attorney and especially having served as President.

:patriot:

God, Obama, PLEASE nominate BJ...PLEASE



For a bunch of devoted guitar strummers, they sure are tone deaf. I think BJ Clinton would send his Death Squad after Obama's Death Squad if that nomination came through. Let sleeping perjury lie!

7. Meh. I'd say no for several reasons.

1) Clinton's doing great work as an ex-president, especially in bringing attention to the plight of the Third World. Why stop that so he can sit on the bench?

2) Clinton may be qualified, but by that test, there are others who are far more so -- people who have judicial experience, for example.

3) While any nomination will be controversial, as the GOP in Congress will likely try to shoot down even the most moderate of choices, picking Clinton is perhaps the least amenable route. It would stir up some of the most obstruction while returning a moderate investment, as Clinton is neither particularly liberal in his judicial philosophy, nor particularly young -- at 63, he would be the oldest Supreme Court nominee in decades.

I would seriously pay money to watch that confirmation hearing. Of course, I'd HAVE to pay money, since it would probably only be on at 11pm on Cinemax!

Oh my.

I was wondering if the primitives were going to get around to this, and they didn't disappoint, although a few hours longer than I had expected.

Yeh, I think having had your law license suspended and not being in the practice of law for a couple of decades might be a minor obstacle to getting that ol' ABA endorsement.

Great, we really need another huge round of "suicides" from BJ's past friends.

I hate to burst the primitive's bubble but, isn't Clintoon a CONVICTED felon? Doesn't that make the moron ineligible?

I would hope so.  But who knows with the Zero Admin running things.

Well he could nominate Michelle. Wm Ayers or Bernadette Dorhn....

SC Justices don't even have to be lawyers, do they?  Reverend Wright for SCOTUS!

[Linda]

  So many    good choices for Obama to pick from....

[YupItsMe]

Well he could nominate Michelle. Wm Ayers or Bernadette Dorhn....

  Personally, I would consider Bill Clinton a moderate, based on the type of person I'm expecting the socialist SOB to nominate.  I'd take Clinton in a minute.  This choice is going to make Ruth Bader look conservative.

Jennifer Granholm is on Obama's short list, as is that Sunstein idiot that wants to put a waiting list on your emails.  No word on Clinton... as usual, the primitives love to dream about shit that just won't happen in a hundred years.

BOY! Them stains ought to show up real good on them black robes.
