Oh, the shame of it all.

Oh dear lord, what a disgrace. This is our Supreme Court. This? is our Supreme Court? I mean, for crying out loud, look at them! They look like a high school production of the Sound of Music. With masculine, elderly nuns. Anyway, Rehnquist would be turning over in his grave. If he were still in charge of this operation, he'd make sure their blacks matched; he'd tell Sandra D. to stop looking at the new Chief Justice like he had cooties; their hems would be of similar length; hell, he'd be after John Paul Stevens with the Bedazzler, saying, "Cheer up! You're a Supreme Court justice, for chrissakes. Someone's got to be the most obscure." They'd be standing in a straight line with their hands in front of them like Ginsburg and Stevens, none of this mish moshed "I'm a Supreme Court justice and I'll stand however I want" posing going on. Oh, man, the good old days.
