Well, if Meirs is not qualified, the Renquist wasn't qualified either. He never served as a judge.

My aren't someone's panties in a twist.

I do believe the article made the point I addressed. "But she has never served as a judge". Though the writer goes on to mitigate this statement, that is the real burn. It is this elitist attitude that we really needed somebody with something more...

But as to Hamilton's comments about cronyism applying to Bush's choice, that is an unproven assumption on your part. And in my opinion, to use your word, irrelevant.

So, back away from the keyboard and take a few deep breaths, and a chill pill...
