This is enough to make me want to pluck out my eyes and pour hydrochloric acid in the sockets:
In an initial chat with Miers, according to several people with knowledge of the exchange, Leahy asked her to name her favorite Supreme Court justices. Miers responded with "Warren" -- which led Leahy to ask her whether she meant former Chief Justice Earl Warren, a liberal icon, or former Chief Justice Warren Burger, a conservative who voted for Roe v. Wade . Miers said she meant Warren Burger, the sources said.
AHHHH!!!!
In the first place, nobody calles Supreme Court justices by their first name. I think she meant Earl Warren! In which case, she's either ignorant or evil. But even if she meant Warren Burger, she's praising the most incompetent chief in history! Who, coincidentally, also voted for Roe!
I don't know how much more of this I can take.
Sigh.
I really think this nominee needs to go down to defeat.

Leon,
I'm not here to comment on Miers. I just wanted to say that I think you have been a gentleman and a scholar over at Redstate lately.
