Is there a reason that those with no real points are the most obnoxious? I'm saying, don't we want to put the youngest possible judges on the bench, like Roberts?

No points -- oh, really? Zinged ya, baby.

Roberts could step off a curb and get hit by a bus. Miers could live and work to 85 or beyond -- other justices have. There is also some utility in having a shorter term when you have such fierce opposition, which would only be galvanized into a frenzy if another "young" judge was perceived as "right-wing."

Good Lord man, you're not ready for the major leagues
