Today's conservatidiot is a GOP criminal icon who feels the need to attack Judge Sotomayor for being a woman. Yes, G. Gordon Liddy-- that lovable crook who helped orchestrate the 1972 break in at Watergate-- is warning the world of what would happen should Sotomayor have to preside over the court during her menstrual cycle: "Let's hope that the key conferences aren't when she's menstruating or something, or just before she's going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then."
So the attacks on Sotomayor go from the ridiculously absurd-- She's apparently a racist for being proud of her heritage-- to the absurdly ridiculous-- if she menstruates, the court is doomed, DOOMED I tell ya!
Sigh... just because Sotomayor is a woman doesn't mean she'll become an irrational, angry, bitter bitch during her menstrual cycle (which, considering she's a fifty-four year old woman, has most likely ended by now). Scalia and Thomas have been irrational, angry, bitter bitches ever since they were confirmed, and neither of them have hoo-haws. They do, however, have crumpled-up constitutions lodged in their sphincters, so we'd better hope they never get a bad case of diarhea, because lordy, the court will undoubtedly be doomed then.

I almost can't believe this.
ReplyDeleteFirst, because I didn't know G. Gordon Liddy was even still around.
Second, because there have already been female members of the Supreme Court.
Third, because Reagan was the one who made a conscious effort to get a woman in there in the first place.
Fourth, because it's FUCKING STUPID.
