4. I'm guessing there are a lot of pissed off REAL judges

who've dreamed and worked their entire careers to be SCOTUS, only to get passed over for a crony.

We'll see how favorably they respond to * policy fights in the courts.

5. Yikes!

The fact she hasn't been a judge worries the hell out of me! On what basis was she chosen? WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHY and HOW are these people picked? After'Brownie Delight', I want to KNOW the criteria upon which these people are hired to work for us!!!

6. I wrote

There are many more experienced and deserving candidates that would serve teh Supreme Court better than Bush's attorney and close friend. This cronyism is out of control.


I wanted to write about Rehnquist, but had to limit my comments for readability's sake. I think the fact that REhnquist hadn't been a judge is quite relevant, he sucked donkey balls. At least Roberts had a little experience with constitutional law.
