Here's my contribution to the post-Miers discussion. Whether it is Judge Brown or some other woman judge, I feel strongly that this time the President will not make any effort to avoid a fight, but will put up a hard-wired judicial conservative.

Word is that they want someone already vetted and the odds are for McConnell.

Why is everybody so hell bent on having a woman on the court. I thought we wanted the "Best Qualified" person for the job.

Sounds like a quota thing to me, but that's just me.

Some of you were here in 1992, when the last Amendment – one that came from the hand of James Madison – was declared ratified by Congress.

1992? Have I missed something?

Personally, I think Janice Rogers Brown is the most qualified. But anyway, I think most people are just recognizing the reality that Bush will pick a woman so as not to upset the two RINOs from Maine.

As for most qualified, W already laughably claimed that Miers was the most qualified. I hope the press isn't smart enough to ask him if the next candidate is therefore not the most qualified, etc.

Time to get the traitors 9 aside and threaten to remove them from any committee or leadership position and make them jump if necessary.

I'm glad you said that........saved me some time. *~*.....not written law saying it HAS to be a woman.....but I'd stand behind Janice Rogers Brown, Edith Jones, Pricilla Owens..........or any well qualified MAN.

I agree with you. He should pick a man just to screw everyone up as long as he is well qualified and a stict conservative.

I am a woman with plenty of bench experience and a lengthy paper trail. Maybe not the best qualified, but HEY I'm a woman !

>>>Next nominee: Hillary Clinton

That might happen if Ruth Buizzy-Ginsberg exits stage-right. And it would be a shrewd political move - the confirmation hearings would be a site to see...and if she were to fail to be confirmed, the bloodletting in the process would ruin Hildabeast for '08 and ever after...

Was W's dad's claim that his nominee, Clarence Thomas, was most qualified "laughable" too?

If he doesn't, and goes for another non-entity, his base will abandon him.
