I keep hearing that, and from what I can tell, it's probably a good thing that Miers isn't a typical pointy-headed deconstructionist straight from Yale Law School.
EXACTLY!! Enough with the liberal, elitist Ivy Leaguers. I think Harriet will be a breath of fresh air...
You're exactly right. Most ordinary people on Free Republic have a better understanding of the actual *text* of the Constitution than the entire graduating class of Yale Law School. Why anyone would say that an elite law school makes someone *better* qualified is a mystery to me.
Why? The dirty little secret is that what's taught at our elite universities has nothing at all to do with either the tradition of natural rights or the Founding of America. Everyone knows this of course, but now they seem to have suddenly forgotten all about it.
