I need the Eggs

It is a bit like that joke when the guy tells the doctor his brother is crazy because he thinks he is a chicken.  When asked why he doesn't take him to a doctor he says he can't because he needs the eggs.  Here is the head of Ohio State's elections complaining about a judge's order to purge the rolls of unqualified voters because a) it is unnecessary and b) it would cause chaos.  Now if it would cause chaos wouldn't that imply that there are a lot of unqualified voters and so the purging of the rolls is, you know, necessary?  It is like a thief indignantly refusing to return stolen property because 1) he is not a thief and wouldn't have any stolen property and b) can't afford to give up all this nice stuff he's got there.
