Not gonna do it and you cant make me

Several items in the news here as of late; 1) Hurricane Katrina nothing to add there yet, 2) Bob Denver has passed.This should be a day of national mourning., 3) The John Roberts confirmation hearings.
I for one find a symmatry in the last 2. Has anyone listened to the John Roberts confirmation hearings? I have... The man has got his act together I must say. He has been answering questions for two straight days from Senators who are fresh and have had forever to prepare their questions. My "Blink" suspicion is that he is less of an idealogue than he may seem and he will be reasoned and reasonable on the bench. Least that is my hope, years after Iraq has slipped into prosperity or civil war, years after New Orleans is being rebuilt in the same location for the second or third time, it is highly possible that John Roberts will be on the bench, shaping the future of American jurisprudence. He has been honest and intelligent in the face of those less so but whos egos allow them to overlook such facts. He has stymied repeated questions about his beliefs with the judicial equivelant of Gilligan's "I'm not gonna do it and you can't make me." While the hapless Gilligan was ultimately and always persuaded, Diane Feinstein and Ted Kennedy seem to lack the persuasive capabilities of Ginger and Mary Ann.
It is unfortunate that these hearings are on the heels of the greatest natural disaster in the United States this century it is further unfortunate that Bob Denver has passed, overshadowed by these events it is nonetheless a loss at a time when we could all do with a good laugh.
Cant you see him in red shirt and sailor cap standing on the shore of that uncharted isle declaring "Nope! I'm not going to do it and you cant make me!"
Good bye Little buddy...
