A "Clown" Was Appointed To The US Supreme Court ?
It's tough being a fictional hoboclown detective.Just when I was holding my head high in prospects of being the first clown to be nominated for the US Supreme Court,
my investigation turned up a "clown" who beat me to the mark!
The fact of the matter was that Richard Nixon was said to have appointed, "four supreme court justices in his first term,including: Warren Burger,Harry Blackmun, Justices Powell and Rehnquist ",according to Luis Arandia,Jr. in his article at

Rehnquist allegedly caught Nixon's eye as Nixon referred to Rehnquist as,"The guy dressed like a clown" who went on to,"be Nixon's eight choice...most successful in
changing the court's philosophy."
As the saying goes,"Sometimes you just have to dress to impress."
