So?
This country wasn't set-up for the elites.
Barrier to entry was never a foundation.
That's something the rulers have created to keep us commoners out.
I'm stunned you support that.

Sorry, but what the heck does that have to do with the issue at hand?
You people need to understand this. It's not just my position, it's why others are complaining as well.
The real beef with miers is not that she doesn't have X experience or Y backround, it's that because she doesn't have that kind of background, we have no record of what she really believes in or how she'd interpret the constitution.
And because of how useless the confirmation process has become, there will be no way to really find out.
And finally, what's worst is that you combine part one and part two, and you put that person on the highest court in the country - for life!
She may be the most constitutionally minded judge ever. She might make ruth buzzy ginsberg look like a genius. The real problem just about everybody has with her is that we really don't know!
We shouldn't have to settle for a crapshoot - not when the republicans are in the best position they have ever been in to stock the supreme court with real conservatives!
Do you think the democrats would not try to put the most liberal judge they could on the supreme court if they had 56 votes in the senate (55+VP)???
