Chief Justice John Ashcroft?......Lord spare us please........

chief justice william renquist is gravely ill, and john asskkkroft is apparently resigning from the office of attorney general.
talk is going around of bush trying to appoint calico crisco christ butt boy john as chief justice of the supremes.

that just can not happen people.

4. Exactly what I thought when I heard he was resigning.

I am soooo not surprised.
Just wait and see.
Or is that hide and watch?

6. Won't happen. Ashcroft is 62. They want someone in their 40s.

That way the new justice can sit on the bench longer if they lose an election or two.

Edit: typo

11. He would never be confirmed

I can't believe that he would stand a chance even on a cold day in Hell... but then again, it's chilly this time of year and it sure seems like everything has gone to Hell since Nov 2nd.

20. Correct.

There is ZERO chance of a new person being brought in as Chief Justice. It simply can not happen.
