CBS News: Alito "sloppy seconds"?
Edited on Mon Oct-31-05 12:21 PM by flowomo
from Drudge (and please, no lectures; you don't like the source, don't read the post):

CBSNEWS Chief White House correspondent John Roberts described the President’s selection of Judge Samuel Alito as “sloppy seconds” during today’s press gaggle with White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan.

John Roberts: “So, Scott, you said that -- or the President said, repeatedly, that Harriet Miers was the best person for the job. So does that mean that Alito is sloppy seconds, or what?”

Scott McClellan: “Not at all, John.”

Sloppy seconds” is described in the United Kingdom’s A Dictionary of Slang as:

Noun: “A subsequent indulgence in an activity by a second person involving an exchange of bodily fluids. This may involve the sharing of drink, or more often it applies to a sexual nature. E.g. ‘I’m not having sloppy seconds, I want to shag her first.’”

5. I truly hate this phrase. As much as I dislike Alito, I'd steer clear of
this phrase.

6. LOL! Good for Roberts!
If Alito wasn't as qualified as Miers then, and Miers was unqualified, what makes that bozo qualified now?

George Will wrote that pResident Turd had "forfeited" his right to pick a supreme court justice because of Miers...wonder if anybody's going to ask the bowtied boob about that?

7. Well, Bush DID say that Miss Miers was the best person for the job
That means that Mr. Alito can not be the best person. There's only one "best," Bush put her up, and now he's had to settle for Alito. So, either Bush was lying about Miss Mier's qualifications or he couldn't be bothered to fight for the "best" choice for the Court.

Which is it? Rash Lardbutt likes to say over and over again that "words mean things." Don't the President's words mean anything?

when she referred to John Edwards as "sloppy seconds" on the grounds that Kerry chose him for VP over John McCain.

(Gets off her shiftless lazy ass and does her own research) Found it--Tara Wall is her name.

12. wow, that's a great find....
please be sure to send that to every site and commentator that tries to bash CBS over its reporters comment. I've bookmarked it for similar use (and just sent it to Drudge, for example).
