If you think her age is an important issue, consider this:

It is quite possible for a 60 year old to serve for 20-25 years on the bench. You can accomplish a lot in 20-25 years.

However, if she turns out to be a bad addition, she does have a limited bench life, so to speak.

Is it really desirable to appoint someone 40-50 to a position they will hold for life with virtually no accountability? If absolute power corrupts absolutely, sounds like a recipe for disaster!

Which is better for you -- a carton of milk or a twinkie? Limited shelf life is often a good thing! ;-)

It's not her AGE that concerns faithincowboys; she's doing her damnedest to insinuate she's a lesbian.

If that someone is a justice in the mold of Scalia, Thomas or Rehnquist, you betcha.
