Harriet Miers Supreme Court nomination... and I've always wanted to ask Samuel Alito,
"So, how does it feel to be W's SECOND choice, after Harriet Meiers?"
Oh! a private buffoon is a light-hearted loon, If you listen to popular rumour; From the morn to the night he's so joyous and bright, And he bubbles with wit and good humour! He's so quaint and so terse, both in prose and in verse; Yet though people forgive his transgression, There are one or two rules that all family fools Must observe, if they love their profession. [Yeomen of the Guard, Gilbert & Sullivan]

It would feel like being G. Harold Carswell, one of Nixon's nominees, who was defended thusly: "Even if he were mediocre, there are a lot of mediocre judges and people and lawyers. They are entitled to a little representation, aren't they?"
