Between the opening statements by republicans at John Roberts’ hearings today and Bush’s buddy ‘Brownie’ stepping down from FEMA, I’ve come to the conclusion that Republicans, at least the current crop in Washington, are simply very lousy job interviewers.

If the Roberts/Brownie hiring was done at your office, it’d sound like this:

Interviewee: Tell us a bit about how you’d handle a situation working for us.

Candidate: I’m sorry, but you asking me a question about how I may or may not do something while on the job is simply insulting. I simply refuse to answer that.

I: Oh. OK. Well, let me ask you about your resume. I noticed that half of it has been blacked out with a Sharpie.

C: I have reasons for not disclosing my past work. Deal with it.

I: Oh. Alright. Well, anything else we should know about you?

C: I’m really good at judging horse shows. Of course, I got fired from that gig too.

I: GREAT! You’re hired! Welcome aboard!
