I never thought I'd be hoping the ABA trashed a Republican appointee as "unqualified" but here it is. Harriet Miers might be qualified to be a district court judge, or possibly a Texas state supreme court justice. With the wind firmly at her back, she might even qualify for a circuit court post in Texas.
But the US Supreme Court? Have we gone so far that only politics matters and jurisprudence or experience are ignored? Seems like bass-akwards to me.
UPDATE: No, this is not a news announcement -- it's a desire to see a news announcement. Any port in a storm.
