Credit Where Credit is Due

On Joe Scarborough's show on MSNBC, Chuck Todd said that the emperor had no clothes, when he said that in the Ricci case that, ""he majority actually, well, to put it bluntly, legislated from the bench."

I have repeatedly called Chuck Todd, "one of the stupidest muthf%$#ers in the White House press room," for his sometime absurdly naive acceptance of the beltway conventional wisdom.

This is not one of those times though. He nailed it when he described the conservative majority's intent in this vote as being judicial activism, even if Joe Scarborough reacted like a cow that had just stepped on its own udder.
