Rick Warren, SCOTUS

So long, Harriet. At least we can check one off yesterday's list. Now we can eagerly await the next nominee, who is sure to be a much more suitable candidate who promises to overturn Roe v. Wade and permit exceptions to all manner of torture restrictions. I'm so relieved.

Fortunately, US News and World Report has published a list of America's Best Leaders ( thanks, Kottke), and I think the country would be well served by choosing our next SCOTUS nominee from this list. Look at some of these brilliant options:

:: Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of Fox News Channel
:: Rick Warren, Author, Pastor, and Motivator
:: Howard Schultz, Chairman of Starbucks

How could you go wrong? Sure, they're all white men, but look, for example, at Rick Warren's qualifications. Author. Pastor. Motivator. Motivator?? He's a shoe-in! At least he'll give Harriet Miers a run for her money.
