Obama to Nominate Sampling Expert to Head Up Census

In case you don't know, liberals have long demanded the inclusion of "sampling" techniques -- polling, basically -- to "supplement" the actual number of people counted in the census.

They claim that such techniques are more accurate than actually counting.

The Constitution, however, has something to say about this: It specifies an "actual ennumeration" (that is, an actual count, not a poll, not a "sampling") to apportion House seats.

And yet Obama will appoint a sampling expert to head the census.

The Supreme Court should rule any use of "sampling" in the census unconstitutional... but alas we need to count on Anthony Kennedy, who has lately found that the US is bound by treaties it never signed.
