A little anal, no? He was sworn in 1988, and Casey came down in 1992 -- ok, 4 years. With all due respect, your argument is illogical. For instance, Scalia was also interviewed, and he turned out to be very solid. You are joining a small chorus defending emotion over logic. That's ok, but that's what it is. My book has example after example of cronies picked by presidents who were terrible.

Cronyism would be RFK's appointment to Attorney General by JFK.

LOL, not my style Levin.

He was sworn in 1988, and Casey came down in 1992 -- ok, 4 years.

Right, within 4 years a guy who was thoroughly vetted upheld a ruling that even the honest lefty high brow lawyers admit is garbage. 4 years!

With all due respect, your argument is illogical.

No, it's not. It's quite logical, the fact that you happen to disagree with my position doesn't make my logic bad, it just means we disagree. The idea that intimate knowledge of a person over a long period of time doesn't increase the likelihood of that POTUS being a better judge of that individual rather than relying on the Sunnunu's of the world is illogical.

For instance, Scalia was also interviewed, and he turned out to be very solid.

That he has.

You are joining a small chorus defending emotion over logic. That's ok, but that's what it is.

Hardly. I'm not accusing you of being overwhelmed by female hormones. But I will if you continue along this line. :-}

Good book.
