Meet the President’s Supreme Court Nominee

“It’s an honor and a privilege to use my power to rule the galaxy – er, excuse me, to serve my country…” – Lord Vader

Sure, the announcement doesn’t occur until 9:00pm EST tonight.  Still, regardless of how the nominee appears on the outside, on the inside that “human being” will actually be the Dark Lord of the Sith.

Predicting how a nominee will ultimately rule as a Supreme Court Justice, particularly when that individual is nominated by a Republican President, is a fools errand.  Nevertheless, we can anticipate months of deranged dialogue, scathing rancor, and boundless exaggeration.

The nominee hasn’t even been identified and the candidate has already been prejudged.

If you can’t tune in tonight, no worries.

You’ll doubtlessly feel a disturbance in the Force…
