We could have had filet mignon. Instead we got hamburger. We could have had Dom Perignon. Instead we got Pabst Blue Ribbon.

I'd say Miers is more smoked brisket and Lone Star--which I would prefer to filet mignon and Dom.

Miers got her undergrad degree in mathematics and packs a 45 revolver--I'm interested to hear the hearings.

Seriously I think that way too many conservatives have lost (or never had) a clear conception of what a Supreme should be. Miers is a logic and detail person, not a ideological fountainhead, and thus may be perfect for filling one of the nine seats.

You know, I would love to see some information on how the Founding Fathers viewed the Supreme Court. I know that one of them (John Adams or Thomas Jefferson) said SCOTUS should be the least dangerous branch of the government. Looks like it's become one of the MOST dangerous.
