Your post displays the divide between your faction and mine. You say it is "a judicial position." I say that it is one of nine people who will decide if this country, this republic, this idea that we call "America" continues to exist.
That's why we strict constructionists are so outraged by this nomination and why -- flawed person that I am -- I could never imagine refusing to serve if I were ever so honored as to be called to make such a contribution.
If you do not see it in these terms, stop for a moment and reflect about those of us who do.

And what if I thought you weren't qualified and came on here and beat the hell out of you, calling for you to step down without a hearing?
Harriett Miers did not refuse the call of W. We should give her a hearing.

(If you're not willing to give Harriett Miers a hearing, I don't give a damn what you think.)
