Stephen Colbert was not impressed with yesterday’s hearings to confirm Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan. “I don’t know about you,” he said, “but I could barely stay awake. It’s like watching senators dry.”
Colbert was concerned about the Kagan nomination, though, especially in the wake of the Supreme Court decision to strike down Chicago’s 30-year ban on handguns. Kagan, he worried, will “take away our assault rifles and use them as softball bats.”
Instead he offered up the nomination of his own handgun, “Sweetness,” to be the next Supreme Court justice.
