Flustering Just About Everybody, Bush Nominates Miers For Supreme Court

Bush's nomination of Miers for Associate Justice distresses more than a few.

The mainstream press reports that she's never been a judge. Many articles fail to report how many other Supreme Court Justices (list) haven't been judges before their appointments. Some Democrats and liberals are calling it cronyism. Some Republicans and conservatives are calling it weak and disappointing. Most everyone is saying Miers has no judicial record... and maybe that's not a bad thing after all. However, in the end the only opinions that matter are the ones of those who are going to approve or deny the nomination.
