And everytime anyone talks about Miers it is "an originalist" in the "mold of Scalia and Thomas." I don't think that means their intellectual equal, but "on the same side of the issue." That's pretty clear to me.
I do understand the argument. But "stealth" in not the same as "in the mold of Scalia and THomas." Those guys are anything but stealthy.
It's obvious a substantial number of people are feeling as though a campaign promise is going lacking - others feel it is being met exactly. There is enough uncertainty about Ms. Mier's constitutianal bona fides to give me the willies about her jurisprudence, but that is only one person's opinion. Reasonable people can disagree on whether Ms. Miers meets the campaign promise or falls short. In fact, they -DO- disagree on that point. See at least you, and me.
My larger concern is for President Bush, the GOP, and the "constitutionalist movement." I've expresssed why I have those concerns, and in general none of them have to do with Ms. Miers, the potential jurist or Ms. Miers the person. Again, just one person's opinion.
