You naysayers are the ones who aren't "getting it".
Scalia says having a Justice on the court who has no previous judicial experience would be a good thing. Roberts had been a FEDERAL JUDGE before being elevated to the SC, so he couldn't have been referring to him. Given the highly publicized controversy over Bush's current nominee, the only person he can be talking about is Harriet Miers.
But why should we give any weight to Scalia's opinion anyway? We can just take the word of renowned Constitutional "experts" like Coulter and elitist Hahvahd graduate Bill Kristol that Ms. Miers is nothing more than an ignorant fundamentalist Christian from TX who doesn't know the difference between the Constitution and a bass fiddle. If Ms. Miers had happened to be a well bred, Ivy League educated graduate of the Hahvahd law school, and a Unitarian agnostic just for good measure, those same elitist snobs would be singing her praises from the top of the Capitol Building.
You know, there is no one more elitist or a clubby insider than this Bush crony. Talk about a well connected Texas schmoozer, they don't come any bigger than Miers. Get off this elitist crap.
