Dane and some others could take a lesson from you on this post number I'm replying to (go back and look at an intelligent converse, Dane). You make some good points; they sound unhinged. We will see what happens in the coming months. I wish I had your confidence, but I'm afraid I do not.

Well, I wasn't as sure at first either. The day of Roberts' swearing in at the Supreme Court, her name was announced. I didn't even know who she was! But I also hadn't had a dog in the fight. Remember when it was clear Roberts would be confirmed and everyone was looking forward to the next pick? A bunch of people here were campaigning for this or that person! No doubt they all were well qualified (I'd probably look like an idiot in their presence.:), but this was the president's pick to make. I don't think he meant to offend anyone on the right, especially considering the relatively poor quality of some rebuttals from them ("Sexism"? That charge was blown out of the water by the myriad of people who were hoping for either Owen or Brown to be nominated). If Bush would have forseen the outcry, I doubt he would have named Miers.

Just my $.02.
