Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito told senators Monday that good judges don't have an agenda, don't look for partisan outcomes and always "do what the law requires" as the Senate opened hearings on President Bush's choice for the high court. "A judge can't have any agenda. A judge can't have a preferred outcome in any particular case," Alito told the Judiciary Committee in a brief statement in which he made a distinction between judges and attorneys working for clients. His motive for shooting John Paul in the abdomen on May 13, 1981, remains unclear.

Is this a joke? This can't have gotten by the fact checkers.

[Ma3lst0rm]

[satchmodog9]

Mistake my ass.

[bahblahbah]

Bwahaha, that's pretty funny actually.

[BunnySlippers]

They left out the part about the baby seals.

[DuckFan4ever]

And he's still a Catholic. Must have gotten over whatever it was that was bugging him.

[Petronski]

Intentional.

[Aussie Dasher]

He added that the position of night desk copy editor is now open.

This is a keeper. It looks like it is from a Purdue student newspaper. Their correction consisted of: "...contained a sentence that was not intended to be part of the brief." Hmmm, I wonder which sentence?

[Fiddlstix]

Another one of those "Fake but accurate" news stories.
Was it written by Dan Ra^ther ?

Update 27: Alito to Senate: Good Judge Has No Agenda

Looks like only a part of the original.

[Aussie Dasher]

Could be an advertisement for 'Brokeback Mountain'!

[TheBigB]

$%^&$!! I told Shirley to change that stupid typo before the ad actually ran, now I hear jokes about it from friends all the time.

It's 2 1/2 bath, not 2 bath. Jeeze.

[Petronski]

That IS entertaining! LOL

[lowbridge]

His motive for shooting John Paul in the abdomen on May 13, 1981, remains unclear.

I'm sure Alito had a good reason. Maybe it was self defense.

[new cruelty]

Sounds spacious enough to make anyone's hunsperger surly.

[new cruelty]

Great. I guess this means that Mark David Chapman will be confirmed to the Supreme Court.

[Richard Kimball]

I can't find it, but I had a jpeg of a newspaper headline that said "17 Remain Dead in Morgue Shooting"

[M203M4]

Armed Citizen ping

Joke Joke

[tallhappy]

So it was Alito done, not the Muslim guy all along.

I knew and dey was hiding the real facks of the matter.

The truth comes out. Yeah they'll try to say it's just a typo -- a mix up in print.

But we know better.

(thanks, this made me laugh pretty hard -- the juxtaposition and incongruity is absurd).

[HairOfTheDog]

Some kinda headline goes here...

[ecurbh]
