    A Polytubbie to Sit on the US Supreme Court

    We need to elect from among us the very best choice.

    The person must be a current poster.

    This will be the nomination process, then we'll have the vote. This will be kind of a nomination vote. If we get so many it will be limited to the top 24 by the polll limits.

    I'll nominate Ben Kenobi

    He is pro life, and to me that's so important.
    He's a thoughtful, decent and respected fellow that I think many can support.
    He can use the force...

    Anyone from Poly you can get behind?

    I nominate Sava.

    I can't think of a person here who wouldn't abuse their power, so atleast let it be the person who would abuse it the best.

    The opinions he'll be writing will open up a whole new dimension of legal interpretation.

    I vote for Che.

    1. He's pro-choice, which is important.

    2. He can be a royal bastard, which will be necessary to get those stupid consies in line.

    3. He snores really loud, so we'll know when he falls asleep during deliberations.

    4. He's my brother, so he can help me get a better job.

    5. He needs a good job.

    Thanks again Lancer. Ah, what I would do if I got to replace Sandra Day O'Connor. What a tag team I would make with Scalia.


    I nominate Shi to replace Rehnquist.

    I would imagine that for the SCOTUS seat we would want someone who is demonstrated the capability for objectivity rather than political bias, so on that basis, I'd nominate Michael the Great.

    Just the thought of an up tight non bending person replacing justices is a lot scary. If I remember correctly these folks need to be able to enforce the laws set in front of them, not their own opinions.

    I think there are a few problems with some of the votes. For one ben is not an american citizen and sava i dont think anyone has heard from for a few months. I have to think for abit to decide who i would want to appoint to a court of law.

    Hmmm...

    Honestly, I'm torn between Azazel and Sikander.

    But since no one has voted 100% seriously - I think Pekka might do a very good job. Or at the very least will have very interesting Super Verdicts and the most original Super Rulings!

    I think that Kuci should be banned for mod baiting. And I think that his bathrooms should be seized and sold to Wal Mart.
