What is a Constitutional Expert? And how in the hell do I trust a person who have spent their entire lives trying to read what isn't there in a document written to be black and white?
Are you serious??? If you are a Constitutional expert you KNOW what's in it and what's not without having to reference it, so you can knock down any stupid arguments based on what's not in the document, because you know from memory it's NOT in the Constitution. If you think it's a bad idea to have a person on the court who has studied the Constitution for 35 years, not sitting on a bench ruling from up high, sometimes based on what the person thinks and not what's IN the Constitution, then THAT is how you get a souter or o'conner or kennedy. Miers has proven that she's a conservative and has been for many years, even voting for Reagan and Bush in '84 and '88 while she was still a conservative Democrat. This argument against her has really become silly and not worth arguing. I'm to the point I will just wait a few months till after she's ruled with Scalit and Thomas and Roberts on issues, and then come back with quite a few "see I told you so's".
