Being a Supreme Court justice ought to be a mind-numbingly tedious job suitable only for super-nerds trained in legal reasoning like John Roberts.

Miers may or may not be a good pick for the Supreme Court, but this statement by Coulter is complete, unmitigated bullsh!t.

The U.S. Constitution is a very short document, and is written in a language that most sixth graders can understand. I contend that a Supreme Court comprised of nine truck drivers would have done far less to f#ck this country up over the last 40 years than the miserable excuses for "legal minds" that have dominated the court.

I'm not totally thrilled with the selection of Miers -- because I'm still holding out hope for a truck driver. But the fact that she is not a "super-nerd trained in legal reasoning" is really a point in her favor.

They are stuck in the pen, without the lords of the ivy league to lead them around by the nose, they are helpless.

Yeah, it's staggering to see folks like Coulter basically buy into the left-wing notion that only super-brains can run this country, when all the experiences of the last 50 years proves exactly the opposite - that the super-brains are a disaster and it's the alleged dumbsh**s like Reagan that change history.

I wish I had a buck for every time I've seen a liberal call Clarence Thomas an idiot. And now Ann might as well join them.

Guess you don't have a clue about the mind numbing issues that can come up before the Court.

Guess any truck driver can figure out the minutia of anti trust for example.
