"Why? Do you know something no one else does?"
I am not saying that the good lady does not have her heart in the right place or that she is not a strict constructionist. What I am saying is that we do not know.
Can you note her appearances before the Supreme Court? What of her published Constitutional studies? How about her noted legal opinions? Nope, none...ok how about this...Has she ever even visited the Supreme Court?
THAT is my problem with this nominee. Compare her to what we desire and deserve. Roberts has forgotten more Constitutional law than Miers has ever seen. We have great jurists with real records and real opinions out there. They were all bipassed for the Presidents Lawyer.
She is in no way qualified for the high court. Heck, I would bet I have read more of the Constitution than she has.
The idea is not to foist any 'strict constructionist' on the court but to get a legal giant if we have one. Well we do, many....sigh, The president simply did not choose one.
Well, again I do not disagree. I hope this will not turn out to be the dissapointment that it might appear to be.
I do, however, think that there is something underlying all of this that we cannot now see.
At any rate, no reason at all to give up the good fight...
