The Ginsburg Fallacy

Seeded on Wed Jan 11, 2006 11:17 PM EST (The Washington Post)

As this article notes, although Ginsburg is now characterized as a radical liberal, in fact she was a consensus choice of both parties at the time of her nomination. Little surprise, then, that her hearing was so much less contentious than todays Alito hearings.

I tried to figure out some pun that wasn't already used in the article...hence, I said they went "ape" over this bill. See, the 20 bill inexplicably has a Del Monte label printed on it. Del Monte makes bananas? Apes like bananas? Ah, just read the article...
