Strategeric

On the nomination of Roberts to Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court — what she said (Sissy Willis at Sisu):

We knew we loved this Roberts fellow — in Dick Cheney's phrase, "big time" — ever since we read his reply to history-challenged members of the other side of the aisle with a rapier wit that takes no prisoners. In reponse to a House Democrat's proposal that the White House and Congress convene a "conference on power-sharing" to codify the duties of each branch of government, he replied:

"There already has, of course, been a 'Conference on Power Sharing' . . . It took place in Philadelphia's Constitution Hall in 1787, and someone should tell Levitas about it and the 'report' it issued."

Great choice, Dubya, and superbly "strategeric" move.

Now what could I add to that <smile>?
