Via Ace, the claim is advanced that no senator may sit in Obama’s cabinet because the Senate just raised Cabinet pay. There’s a tradition of using “the Saxbe fix”: lowering the pay rate, a dodge pioneered by Tricky Dick Nixon. This may observe the spirit of the law, but not the letter. But when we don’t have to see proof of Obama’s native birth, and the 2nd Amendment is a personal right to be violated like all the others, what’s a little finagling among friends? It’s good to know that Obama’s Constitution is Bush’s Constitution; we wouldn’t want any kind of “change we can believe in”.
I haven’t found any rumblings from the PUMAs yet.
