I believe I heard from you that Miers' critics were ignoring the law.

Earthdweller, I am still confused by this. Who has been advocating ignoring the law and what laws do they intend to ignore

"Who has been advocating ignoring the law and what laws do they intend to ignore?"

Here, I'll answer for Earthdweller: The Constitution requires that the President appoint and the Senate Consents. The People have no place in the process under the Constitution, and therefore, are legally obligated to stay out. To express an opinion is to ignore the Constitutional procedure.

I think that's the gist of it.
