A pit bull in size 6 shoes goes for the robes...

Well I'm glad I didn't guess on that one, though I did not think President Bush would pick Harriet Miers, it does make sense in some ways but not in others.

She has no experience as a Judge, which while not a requirement for the Supreme Court, there have been only a few who have not been Judges (Rehnquist worked in the Nixon Administration in the Justice Department). This means it's going to make it hard to see what type of a Judge she is going to be, more difficult than Roberts, which might have been the intent.

It's ironic that the woman who had such a large part in helping President Bush select John Roberts ended up being selected herself.

I question her legal experience, she is no where near the same caliber as John Roberts. Not that it will matter in the end, the Republicans will probably have enough votes, and there is still alot more we don't know. However initially? I am not impressed, at least Roberts was impressive, conservative? Yes, but at least impressive.

UPDATE: I do have to add something that really irritates me. Every woman who decides not to marry or have a family is NOT a lesbian. I've already read too many blogs this morning who are implying Miers is a lesbian. Let it go people, sheesh if she is who cares? If she isn't? You make yourselves look stupid by bashing her on something that we who are more left are supposed to support.
