I had this horrible thought today while reading a few opinions by Justices Marshall and O'Connor. The following captures my deductive reasoning:
1. America was ready for a black Supreme Court Justice before it was ready for a female one.
2. But the female Justice didn't come too long after the black Justice.
3. The black Justice was wonderful, one of the best. He was the culmination of true social change.
4. The female Justice was a nightmare and a disaster. She was the product of the conservatives trying to prove something.
5. Our first black President seems pretty good so far, and because he's got that JFK charisma, he'll probably be remembered even more favorably by history.
6. Our first female President will be a nightmare and a disaster, a product of conservative tokenism.
Ergo:
7. Sarah Palin will be our first female President.
AHHHHHH!

Whoa, that is seriously scary stuff. Damn, I have to investigate foreign work opportunities before "mama grizzlies" take over the government. By the way, do you ever notice how Sarah Palin keeps likening herself to animals, like pitbulls and grizzlies? I guess being a dog and a bear sounds better and more concise than "nakedly ambitious but unqualified female".
