I take it you cede my previous point since you have now lept onto a new subject. And until either Laura Ingram or Ann Coulter become partners in a law firm, President of a State Bar, or the Counsel to the Whitehouse, your new arguments are moot as well. And that includes your demands for proof of her positions on Roe V Wade etc.. Why don't you explain to me what Thomas' public position on Roe V Wade was prior to and during is Senate confirmation hearings. I'll give you a little headstart. Here is a quote from him regarding Roe V Wade during his hearings... "I have no reason or agenda to prejudge the issue or to predispose to rule one way or the other on the issue of abortion, which is a difficult issue." Guess we should have demanded Thomas step aside as well. Speaking of Thomas, noted conservatives at the time believed he resembled Souter in ideology. Again, if we stood on their opinions, I guess we should have demanded he step aside.

In other words, you won't be dazzled by their careers until they have sucked up to so many influential power-brokers and party loyalists that they have obtained high-profile positions in the legal realm, which bear absolutely no relation to their inherent merit as attorneys.

Being a successful brownnoser does not equate to winning a critical judgment in a civil or criminal lawsuit, or establishing a lasting Constitutional precedent.
