What else did you expect Miss Miers to say in this questionaire; it is actually an answer that even the most liberal nominee could submit and feel comfortable about. It has some of the correct phrasing and key words but in reality in indicates nothing. Also, Senator Spector is very detailed and if he "misunderstood" Mier's opinion on Griswald.....well, she's trying to speak out of both sides of her mouth so as to not "alienate" anyone and fortunately (because I don't trust her) she has neither the scholarship, brains or ability to do as credible a job as Justice Roberts. She simply is unqualified for a seat on the Supreme Court and incapable of a masterful performance in her Judiciary hearing.

"Thus, whether the prior decision is wrong is only the beginning of the inquiry. The court must also consider other factors, such as whether the prior decision has proven unworkable, whether developments in the law have undermined the precedent, and whether legitimate reliance interests militate against overruling…'


One prime example..............the court should consider, not if it is "proven unworkable, ....." but if it is unconstitutional. Obviously in Roe, she could argue that Planned Parenthood and millions of workers depend on Roe for family income...and women and girls are depended now on abortion as a choice to family health.............Roe is now a part of our established "culture"

The most liberal members could assent to this?

Now that is just silly....
