Cackles from the Balcony

Bush's decision to elevate his already appalling nomination of undistinguished Bush-crime-family loyalist and theocon stealth candidate John Roberts into a nomination for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court continues the unspeakably surreal spectacle of this Administration's criminal incompetence and ghastly contempt for the Republic. I was casting about for some analogy to get a modest handle on the latest insanity and then Eric reminded me of Caligula making a horse a Senator of Rome. Perfect. Things are going so well.

And, by the way, Democrats? Anyone? Anyone?
