The Best Reason To Fear A Hillary Presidency?

Over at 'Okie' we all wish SeeDubya Godspeed and good fortune for whatever venture he's off on at the moment -- we'll say a few prayers for him, too just for good measure. I just saw this one from a link at Hugh Hewitt's blog in a post titled: A Christmas Nightmare. He's not kidding!

If this doesn't curdle your milk, you must be a Democrat!

Supreme Court Justice -- Bill Clinton:

In short, a seat on the Supreme Court solves Sen. Clinton's dilemma of what to do with her husband if she becomes president. It keeps Bill formally out of the White House and structurally out of the executive branch. And lest that dampen Mr. Clinton's interest, he might be reassured by Taft's practice of continuing to advise the president on the substance of legislation and to lobby to sustain various presidential vetoes.

True, some of this activity would be seen as well beyond the precepts of modern judicial ethics, but even if Justice Clinton stayed solely within his judicial role, his impact need hardly be minimal. During Taft's service, the court called the shots in government getting its own building and for the first time winning virtually complete control of its own docket.

How much more opportunity would be knocking for a Justice Clinton with an Iraq-induced, Democrat-controlled Congress? There's no need to take this comparison further at this point. Former President Clinton will no doubt guffaw at the possibility of judicial service, but then, hasn't he already stated, "I will serve in whatever capacity she deems most appropriate"?

Mercy!
