REMEDIAL SESSION. Let me join with Scott in puzzling over the newfound affection for Alabama's Jeff Sessions. It's one thing for conservatives to appreciate a loyal soldier, but to praise his intellect and try to elevate him to a policy job? Every time I've noticed Sessions, it's been for a dazzling display of dimness. During the John Roberts hearings, a thousand liberal blogs, mine included, simultaneously noticed the bizzarely incapable senator from Alabama. As Wonkette explained it, "[Sessions is] treating Roberts like the guy who talks to the class on Career Day." It was really something. On the bright side, he's sorta soft on crack. --Ezra Klein
