Quote and quiz of the day

Back in 2007 the President, then-candidate and still-Constitutional scholar, laid down the following position description:

"the criteria by which I'm going to be selecting my [ ]": "We need somebody who's got the heart, the empathy, to recognize what it's like to be a young teenage mom. The empathy to understand what it's like to be poor, or African-American, or gay, or disabled or old."

To what job was he referring?

- Scout troop den mother
- Health and Human Services Director
- Federal judge
- FEMA grief counselor






If you answered "Federal judge", you'd be correct.

Hey, it wasn't like it was going to be:

"An unswerving commitment to the rule of law, a belief that the Constitution is a sacred contract between the government and the U.S. citizens and a firm grasp of the limits of the court’s own jurisdiction."

... or anything silly like that.
