Kennedy Questions Roberts on Civil Rights



WASHINGTON - After days of Democratic deference to John Roberts, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy said Thursday that documents made public to date indicate the Supreme Court nominee holds a "rather cramped view of the Voting Rights Act." The question is, more cramped than Kennedy's pants? So we asked the senator's tailor, Sheldon Kleinman. "Oh, dear yes the fabrics can only withstand so much pressure and yes ofcourse its a little tight in there. We take em' out a few inches a year, but the senator's gut always catches up. The senator is always loosing his pants or ripping out the back of them, or spills and stains of unknown origin, good customer".
