The recent selection then withdrawal of Ms. Harriet Meirs as Associate Justice to the Supreme Court was tainted with cries of "cronyism" because the President picked his own attorney to fill a vacant position. The event spawned my recollection of maybe the most bizarre appointment in United States history. It involved President John F. Kennedy.
President Kennedy appointed his brother Robert to the position of Attorney General of the United States. His brother! I suppose we are led to believe that his brother was the best qualified candidate for the job. Recent events expose the pure hypocrisy inherent in the standards of the Democratic party.
Just imagine if the current President, George Bush, nominated his brother (Jeb) to a high ranking government position. Oh brother, would we hear the Dem's scream. Their memory is equivalent to their experience with reality. Spotty to say the least.
About Me
- Michael
- A former United States Marine, and Vietnam veteran. He retired from working at a Correctional Institution in 2001. If that wasn't bad enough, he must now reside among people who give "stupid idiots" a bad name. Truly affected by the mockery of the system, and the duping of so many, and amazed by the failure of the Liberal Justice System engineered by people who have no experience in, or knowledge of.... Justice. Michael is the ramification, and remnant of a society obsessed with their "pursuit of happiness."
