"Kagan has NEVER BEEN A JUDGE - she’s not even qualified for American Idol, let alone the Supreme Court."

As I said to the other poster, there is a long and deep history of appointing attorneys that had no bench experience whatsoever to the Court, icluding former CJs Rehnquist and Marshall, and associate Justices Brandeis and Franfurter - those aren't small figures in the history of the Court, those are towering figures in the history of the Court.

It's not that she doesn't have any judicial experience, it's that she almost no experience actually practicing law to include no litigation experience and no arbitration experience of any kind and that is compounded by the fact that she has troubling positions on some foundational constitutional principles.
