Bush Misses an Opportunity

I’m sure John Roberts will be a fine Supreme Court Justice, and I’m not complaining about Bush passing over Learned Foot (my sources tell me that Foot is being saved for Chief Justice). But, I am disappointed that Bush missed an important historical opportunity: appointing the first hot chick to the Supreme Court.

I know little about Edith Brown Clement, but you have to admit she looks pretty good for a woman in her late 50s (I would go even hotter and younger). I’m not saying looks should be the only consideration for a Supreme Court nominee – I would oppose the nomination of Scarlett Johanssen despite her hotness. But, after 216 years without a hot chick on the court (no offense to Sandra Day O’Connor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, but they are not hot chicks) it is time for America to have a justice we would like to see in a wet t-shirt contest.

Yes, I am usually against tokenism, but in a nation of 250 million people there has to be at least one conservative hot chick who’s qualified to serve on the highest court of the land. Isn’t it about time we gave attractive young girls someone besides Britney Spears to look up to? I’m saddened to see President Bush pass up this opportunity.
