President Bush's conservative base is up in arms over his pick of Harriet Miers for the Supreme Court. But what's not to like? If only it could be revealed (without the stupid Democrats finding out) that she's Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia's demon-clone love child . . . and so what if she doesn't have the right number of fingers and toes? Details, sheesh!
(NO EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS WERE MURDERED DURING THE CLONING OF THIS ASSOCIATE JUSTICE.)

Animal lovers fear squirrels could become crack-crazed rodents.
"The furry woodland creatures are digging up rocks of crack cocaine buried by dealers. In America, they have already launched frenzied attacks on people as they root out their next fix. Now grey squirrels are believed to have plundered hidden stashes of crack in Brixton, south London."
Bush nominates Harriet Whatshername, a person with zero judicial experience (and no paper trail), to the Supreme Court . . . but she is his lawyer, and an evangelical Christian, and once said she thought George Bush was the most brilliant man she'd ever met. (Boy, does that say a ton about her "judgement"!)
