"I think it's a good thing to have people from all sorts of backgrounds [on the Court]," Scalia tells CNBC's Maria Bartiromo, as the debate rages over Miers' lack of judical experience.
Notice he didn't mention Miers by name.
Don't be coy, Tony. Is Miers qualified or not? Are all people without judicial experience "fungible"---is one as good as another?
Another point: Scalia loses nothing by these statements. If---God forbid---Miers is confirmed, he has her good will. If she isn't, he has Bush's good will. A win-win for Scalia. *YAWN!*
You've been such a know-it-all about this, why don't YOU provide ANY link and/or news article where ANY sitting Supreme Court judge has EVER commented on the qualifications of a Supreme Court nominee?
We can all wait while you find them, since I'm sure you have them, making such a declarative statrment as that, right? I mean, you wouldn't try to mislead anybody would you?
Let's have it, Map.
