Historic moment

[fpb]

An important section of the community is for the first time represented on the Supreme Court of the United States of America. For the first time in history, a proven perjurer has been made Associate Judge. This is surely a progressive step, and we look forward to the first murderer. Or murderess.

Basically I agree with you, but v. minor nitpick--really thoroughbred kind of perjury. The word you need here is purebred--thoroughbred specifically refers to a horse registered by the Jockey Club. My new kitty Monk is a purebred Cornish Rex, but he can't be a thoroughbred. /end pedantic nitpickiness for today.
