Dave Berry's Year In Review

It's finally on the Intertubes. One of the better parts:
But the big political drama takes place in Washington, where David Souter announces that he is retiring from the Supreme Court because he is tired of getting noogies from Chief Justice Roberts. To replace Souter, President Obama nominates Sonia Sotomayor, setting off the traditional Washington performance of Konfirmation Kabuki, in which the Democrats portray the nominee as basically a cross between Abraham Lincoln and the Virgin Mary, and the Republicans portray her more as Ursula the Sea Witch with a law degree. Sotomayor will eventually be confirmed, but only after undergoing the traditional Senate Judiciary Committee hazing ritual, during which she must talk for four straight days without expressing an opinion.
Dave Berry still is one of the best writers out there.

  1. I'll take Sea Witch for several hundred billion in costs.

  2. I am neither surprised nor shocked that you would make that choice. Your misogyny is well known.

  3. Yes, one of the best conservative writers out there. He pretty much rips the hell out of Obama and the Democrats. Mainly because they are in charge, I suppose.
