I thought that all any liberal appointee had to say was that they saw every Perry Mason episode and that was good enough for immediate confirmation.

I'm reminded of when CA Rep Ellen Tauscher was questioned about "abuse" of prisoners in Iraq, she said, "I don't know the answer, but I watch enough 'Law and Order' to know that what's happening isn't right."  The best comment was "I've seen Top Gun 10 times. So when is the Navy going to let me fly an F-14?"

Living proof that most politicians would not be able to function in the real world.
