Yeah, because the conservatives sure do want some "polite discourse". Right out of the box, Sam? If that's the way you want to play, I'm sure Joe can bat with the best of them. Justice Michael Moore? Or maybe Jane Fonda? (she'd look fab in one of those gowns)
At a gala dinner hosted by the American Spectator on Wednesday, Supreme Court Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. cracked wise at Vice President-elect Joe Biden's expense, raising the Delaware senator's past brushes with academic dishonesty, to the delight of his conservative audience.
Recalling an incident in which an article he submitted to the Spectator was rejected for publication, Alito began by joking that his unpublished piece had detailed how he would vote on the most controversial issues facing the Supreme Court.
Then — in the process of suggesting things had turned out well for him despite this rejection — Alito trained his sights on Barack Obama’s running mate.
"To coin a phrase, in the spirit of the vice president-elect," Alito began, "you can't always get what you want, but you get what you need."
Alito paused before continuing: "Did somebody say that before?"
