I like ducks. There are too many bobble-head dolls in the world; I figure the maximum number should be around twenty-three. There is no governor anywhere. Fnord. Napalm jokes are not as amusing as some people think they are. Never eat anything bigger than your head. Remain calm. Kinky Friedman is a very funny fella. Good music can be painful. Watch your head.

On SCOTUS - Biden Says "No Pure Ideologue"

I'm watching 'Face the Nation' on TV while enjoying my morning coffee. Senator Joe Biden (D) from Delaware, said that he'd filibuster any presidential nomination that was a person who was a "pure ideologue."

Definition of "ideologue" - a person who believes very strongly in particular principles and tries to follow them carefully.

We don't want that, do we? Let's make sure we get someone with no strong belief in any particular principles.

The very last thing we want is someone who has read the US Constitution and Amendments and who thinks it means something important to us today.

Feh!

I can see what he is TRYING to say, he wants someone who will purely interpret the constitution, not introduce a political agenda.

He certainly didn't choose a very good way of saying it. Heck, I think I said it better and I have never run for any office.
