Last night, on the CBS Evening News, the reporters were all impressed that Chief Justice nominee John Roberts spoke without notes at his confirmation hearing.
I didn't understand their fascination with this simple act of memorizing a few notes for possibly the most important day of a person's professional life. Any actor can do that. Does that mean we should consider Sean Penn or Bruce Willis for a post on the Supreme Court (other credentials notwithstanding)?

you just got me moving down the wrong aisle on this---Sean Penn is, recent and past flukey things notwithstanding, one of the people whose craft I admire most---so of course, he's hot---what were you saying about him?

You know.
Popeye - That would make the Judiciary a littly more interesting, don't you think?
