She doesn't think the "average" college alum is subpar, she simply thinks that the average college alum with no experience in constitutional law shouldn't sit on the Supreme Court, and I whole-heartedly agree! The fact that she went to SMU Law School doesn't disqualify her by any means, and I think Coulter agrees with that. What it does mean is that, absent other spectacular achievements or experience (which Miers doesn't have), she is not qualified for the Court.
If that's true, she wouldn't have brought up the "big-ass" standard deviation in IQs between SMU Law and Harvard Law grads.
Her words in this article–like in all her articles–were meant to provoke.
Perhaps you need to reread this thread or find the latest Coulter columns. She certainly does think the SMU degree disqualifies her. As much as people are trying to make this thread about Miers, it is about Ann. It's about Ann's attitude lately regarding the "average" people in America. Just because she doesn't agree with the nomination doesn't mean those of us "average" people who didn't go to Ivy League schools are somehow below her. Yet she is continually stating things that way in her zeal against the nomination.
