Quote of the Week...Just Like a Broken Clock

"We have to respect that any nominee to the Supreme Court would have to defer any comments on any matters, which are either before the court or very likely to be before the court. This has been a procedure which has been followed in the past and is one which I think is based upon sound legal precedent."

Ted Kennedy - 1967...commenting during the Thurgood Marshall Supreme Court Nomination

For those know me personally...you could have safely bet that I would never have a quote from Ted Kennedy that I agreed with...and won yourself a boat load of money. But just like a broken clock is right twice a day...Mr. Kennedy gets it right every now and again. Now I did have to go back 38 years ago to find one...but by golly Mr. Kennedy got this one right.

Ted...I'd encourage you to stick with your philosophy from 1967 during the upcoming John Roberts' nomination. You got that one right...and you can once again.
