First off, I dont believe the Position should be political, as Robert Bork Stated last night on Hardball. it should be a judicial appointment, not a political one. however reality is a different story.

If I were President , would i want one of my Buddies on the Court? Sure. Would I actually be self involved enough to put my own intrests over the nations? No.

As you know, as just about everyone here knows, I lean left. I also know the People who put Bush in office lean Right. I fully Expected the next SC Justice to be Alberto Gonzales. A Conservative. Would I "Like" it? probably Not. But Given that Bush is who we have as President, Bush should put someone who represents THE PEOPLE who put Bush in office, not a Justice who represents Bush himself. Gonzales is a qualified person, who like him or not (not) deserves the nod LONG ahead of Miers.

Give Miers another Crony Job...perhaps Ambassador to Fiji?
