In five words why are you against Harriet Miers nomination?

"In five words why are you against Harriet Miers nomination?"

Five words? That's silly. You believe that the reasons behind the choice of someone to serve at least 20 years on the highest court in the USA can be reduced to five words?

I'm afraid you're taking all of this far too casually. There is more at stake here than what you think Miers' vote on Roe v. Wade might be.

Every decision the SCOTUS takes has lasting effects. We do not know what Miers' knowledge of and attitute towards the Constitution is. She has no experience with constitutional issues. That, in my opinion, is unacceptable.

President Bush can help us here by defining the reasons she should be confirmed. So far, he has not done that.

How about these five: Bush vowed nominating another Scalia.
