On Friday, the Supreme Court ordered that the Bush twins, Jenna and Barbara, be immediately sterilized. Quoting the 1927 Supreme Court decision of Buck v. Bell, the High Court ruled that the Bush twins "[are] the probable potential parent[s] of socially inadequate offspring, likewise afflicted, that [they] may be sexually sterilized without detriment to [their] general health and that [their] welfare and that of society will be promoted by [their] sterilization."Further quoting the majority opinion of the esteemed Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. from the seminal case of Buck v. Bell, the Court sternly warned that "THREE GENERATIONS OF IMBECILES ARE ENOUGH."
Many Supreme Court commentators expressed a lack of surprise regarding the Court's strongly worded opinion.
"It's clearly in the best interests of the country that the Bush legacy be terminated. They are sweet girls, but we just can't take the chance of those genes being passed to future leaders of this great nation," explained one Washington D.C. appellate lawyer on condition of anonymity.
In perhaps the most pointed excerpt from today's opinion, the Court once again quoted from Buck v. Bell in reasoning that:
"It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind."
In a somewhat startling break from recent tradition, the nine Justices on the Supreme Court all concurred in the majority opinion mandating the sterilization of the Presidential daughters. New Bush appointee, John Roberts, drafted the nine page opinion.
