Some Questions You Just Don't Ask
Howard Bashman, the uber-blogger of things legal, has started a contest:
Dumb-ass questions contest: Why should seven Democratic U.S. Senators and their staff have all the fun? Why indeed!Accordingly, I am hereby launching a "How Appealing" contest to identify the most dumb-ass question that could possibly be asked of U.S. Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts, Jr. at his upcoming confirmation hearings. Unlike last time, when U.S. Senator Orrin G. Hatch (R-UT) put himself in charge of deciding whether or not questions for Roberts were appropriately characterized as "dumb-ass," this time I'm the sole referee of this admittedly entirely subjective contest.
(links omitted) Please, Howard, no, no! If you publish those, you're giving talking points to Ted Kennedy and Chuck Schumer. I know you think you're joking, but really, Howard, you're playing with fire here. What are you going to say when D.J. Teddy K gets up on the podium and says, "Judge Roberts, as Pennsylvania attorney Howard Bashman has asked. . . ."
