docwebsterGenties and ladlemen, meet Bush appointee Leon Holmes.
Some choice quotes from this idiot:
"Abortions should not be available to rape victims because conceptions from rape occur with the same frequency as snow in Miami." -- letter to the editor, 1980 (he's since apologized).
"The wife is to subordinate herself to her husband." and "the woman is to place herself under the authority of the man." -- article co-written with his wife.
But this, dear friends, is the real prize winner:
He agrees with Booker T. Washington that slavery was, at least partially, an example of divine providence. "[God has] placed the Negro race in America so it could teach the white race by example what it means to be Christlike."
More lunacy attendant to Judge Looneybin, but not from he himself:
WASHINGTON -- Reading from the Bible on the floor of the Senate on Tuesday, Sen. Orrin Hatch endorsed a federal judicial nominee who wrote that wives should have a subordinate role in marriage, with the Utah Republican emphasizing "millions and millions of people will agree with" that view.
Go ahead, Bush apologists. Go right ahead and spin this one.
