Do you know that you just proved my point about open debate?

It doesn't matter to you how she performs in the hearings and I'm supposed to engage you in an intelligent discussion?

This was not an intellectual decision by Bush and his advisors. It was a political decision. Everything that occurs from the moment Bush and advisors decided to trial balloon this with Dobson et al, has been a political move, with the ensuing political discussions.

There is no intellectual discussion possible, with no substantive background dating before her nomination, for the talking heads on FR to discuss.
