How Barack Obama Arranged a Seat on the Supreme Court for Lawrence Tribe

Imagine this:

Barack Obama "Hello? Pope Benedict! Thank you for calling back about Justice Thomas!"
"Yes, I would like to ask a small favor."
"Would you consider appointing an very talented American Judge to a Cardinal's job?"
"No, as far as I know he is not a priest but my understanding is that your tradition does permit such appointments for accomplished people of faith."
"yes, he is very devout."
"Married? I see. Well, he IS beyond the age of reprod ---"
"Oh."
"Well, they were married in an Episcopal Church, could you annul it?"
"Great!"
"Yes, I will remember this when you need a favor."
"Me???"
"Hmmm, now that I am no longer a trinitarian, I could ....."
"Would Michelle also have to convert?"
"Tell you what, we will convert IF you do the invocation at my inaugural!"
"Itsa deal!"
