Ann missed the bit about Miers being the managing partner of the largest law firm in Dallas. Just an oversight I'm sure. Ann, dear, slam Miers all you want, but don't be so crudely selective in the facts you select that it makes one wince, about something we all know about anyway. Don't be a b-itch Ann.

She didn't miss anything.

Every "accomplishment" in Miers unimpressive career can be attributed to either relentless brown-nosing or political toadying.

The fact that a group of equally mediocre intellects and single-track careerists felt the need to confer upon her the honor of heading up a state bar association doesn't strike me as being out of character.

She has no coherent judicial philosophy-and I find it hard to believe that she's ever seriously considered an issue such as separation of powers, outside of the rather narrow framework of how it can be manipulated to enhance the powers of the chief executive-and has not expressed one definitive viewpoint on a controversial subject that has made its way onto the Supreme Court docket over the course of her lifetime.

She may be perfectly plausible as a nondescript, bland, innocuous attorney.

But as a possible associate justice of the Supreme Court?!

Only as farce.
