How on earth does a couple of years of corporate law, and then a couple of more as a congressional staffer, make you an "expert" in Constitutional Law? Setting the bar awfully low for expertise these days, aren't we?
No we're not, since that's what her specialty is. From Wikipedia:
Coulter is a legal correspondent for the magazine Human Events and holds a degree in constitutional law.
Here's part of her bio from her site:
Coulter clerked for the Honorable Pasco Bowman II of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit and was an attorney in the Department of Justice Honors Program for outstanding law school graduates.
After practicing law in private practice in New York City, Coulter worked for the Senate Judiciary Committee, where she handled crime and immigration issues for Senator Spencer Abraham of Michigan. From there, she became a litigator with the Center For Individual Rights in Washington, DC, a public interest law firm dedicated to the defense of individual rights with particular emphasis on freedom of speech, civil rights, and the free exercise of religion.
A Connecticut native, Coulter graduated with honors from Cornell University School of Arts & Sciences, and received her J.D. from University of Michigan Law School, where she was an editor of The Michigan Law Review.
That's why I consider her an expert in constitutional law. Miers' resume does not even come close.
Your witness.
