"'She failed in Card's office for two reasons,' the official says. 'First, because she can't make a decision, and second, because she can't delegate, she can't let anything go. '"

I don't want a Supreme Court Justice who makes snap decisions.

I want a Justice who looks at the leftist arguments with something other than Ruth Bader Ginsburg's blind acceptance.

An attorney (or a judge) that can't make a decision is worthless. I deal with judges that can't make a decision on a daily basis...and know what they always do?

They take the middle road, which is invariably whatever some other court has held (or, I should say, what I tell them that court has held...LOL)...completely unable to think for themselves.

I guarantee you that Scalia knows how he is going to rule on a case once he reads the issue presented. Miers, OTOH, looks like another swing vote.

You're reaching. He didn't say she couldn't make snap decisions. He said she couldn't make decisions.


That's a horrible no good quality for a judge to have. Somebody's gotta win, somebody's gotta lose. Inability to make decisions is often how we end up with compromises that result in weird judicial tests that have nothing to do with the Constitution.
