Who are you fooling? Stop attacking this man with intimidation. Of course you were trying to persuade (argue) by demonstrating that your opposition is ignorant--ignorant of how long it will take to tell if Miers is strongly conservative. You are wrong. You think it will take years instead of months. When sarcasm followed, you went ape. Your rudeness is getting worse by the post. I am a mathematician. Will you accuse me of difficulty with logic?
Addendum to post 122: Perhaps you did not understand that the sarcasm points up the fact that Miers is largely an unknown quantity (years away from knowing the outcome). The best we can do as Freepers who enjoy disquisiting about politics is to constrain the likely outcome as one constrains an unknown infinite series between known ones. The methodologies of those who are concerned about Miers have been far more effective on the whole than the "just trust him" approach precisely because they are logical.
Lol what a funny sense of what "going ape" is I have treated all of you with kid gloves and barely unleashed scorn and ridicule merely a few luke warm gibes. There are bigger knock down drag outs in kindergarten.
Your mathematical abilities apparently give you no particular insight into these matters. And the arguments against Miers don't ADD up to anything. They sum to a big zero.
The poor schlep you feel should be defended has done nothing but attempt to insult me so spare your concern.
