Teaser Tuesday: Supreme Courtship by Christopher Buckley

It's Tuesday, Where are you ? is hosted by Raidergirl3.

I am in Washington, DC at a committee meeting trying to investigate the latest presidential nominee for the Supreme Court. The two previous nominees, who were impeccable by the way, were shot down by the committee chairman solely because he was miffed at President Vanderdamp. Having his two best nominees rejected by the committee, President Vanderdamp now champions Pepper Cartwright, a very popular TV judge. Let's see if the committee has managed to dig up some dirt on the latest victim nominee.



Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by Miz B of Should Be Reading
and asks you to :

1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a random page
3. Share 2 "teaser"sentences also citing the title of the book and the author and in that way people can have great recommendations if they like the "teaser.
4. Please avoid spoilers!

This week's teaser is taken from Supreme Courtship by Christpher Buckley.

"Let's have it," Dexter said.

"Senior year at her boarding school, she and another girl put shaving cream on the headmistress's toilet seat."

Dexter stared at his chief of staff. "Well, that'll drive a stake through her heart."

"Sorry, Senator, we'll keep trying."

This book was featured in my Show Me 5 Saturday post. In case you missed it and want more info about the book, see this.
