'CRYING JUDGE' FROM ANNA NICOLE SMITH CASE NAMED ATTORNEY GENERAL

WASHINGTON -- President Bush today announced his choice to replace controversial Attorney General Alberto Gonzales is the even more controversial former Florida Judge Larry Seidlin who presided over the proceeding for the custody of the body of Anna Nicole Smith. Seidlin is a former taxi driver best known for his crying, rambling and monologuing in the Smith case.

Bush explained that "Seidlin's dramatics make him well-suited to carry on the level of professionalism that this administration has come to expect at the Department of Justice."

Seidlin was reportedly nominated after Judge Lance Ito turned down the President's offer, and after the President learned that his second choice, Jack Bauer, Kiefer Sutherland's character from the TV show 24, is fictional.
