In defense of Ramesh and critical conservatives generally, there’s an argument now being thrown around that those of us who question Miers’s judicial philosophy — i.e., who are actually searching for one, are reflexive, or some such nonsense. Of course, this suggests that those who are defending her are not reflexive, but well-informed and thoughtful. Well, some of us reflexive types have been searching without success for Miers’s philosophy. You see, the president’s not up for confirmation. His judicial philosophy may or may not be shared by Miers. It’s incumbent on her proponents to provide some justification for their position unless, of course, they’re reflexively results-oriented. Moreover, anyone who reads this website and concludes that we speak as one is way off base. There are times when many of us concur, like now, but there are often strong and serious disputes. Other websites and blogs would do well to copy this approach.
