On this date in 1969, retiring Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Earl Warren swore in the new Chief Justice Warren Burger. Many years late, Warren Burger had the distinct pleasure of swearing in Chief Justice Burger Earl who overcame an early political defeat to Mayor McCheese in order to reach this highest office. Ultimately, however, he too would retire. He would be replaced by Earrlen Burgerwar, who just messed things up so, so badly. Supreme Court? More like Supreme… Bad.

Happy Saint Jonas Day! He was, as you may know, carrying the wheel. And though we’re thankful for all he’s shown us, this is how we feel.
