Earl Warren and Louis Brandeis had never worn the robe either.<br /><br />Personally, as a practicing atty, I can honestly say I would not care if someone had never worn the robe. Knowledge of the law, inherent sense of fairness and right/wrong and personal belief in the application of law are the only three things I think matter in a judge. <br /><br />I can tell you firsthand, that there are plenty of practicing attorneys I know, who have never worn the robe and probably never will, who would make excellent judges. <br /><br />Judicial experience is not and should not be a disqualifier.pluvlawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10419133248957132293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20082680.post-51604422969965086522009-07-15T17:19:21.641-04:002009-07-15T17:19:21.641-04:00she is inshe is inlove my puerto rican women mgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20082680.post-69015958788663930962009-07-15T16:39:34.744-04:002009-07-15T16:39:34.744-04:00At least Ginger Lynn would look better in a robe (...At least Ginger Lynn would look better in a robe (lucky robe)...tegAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20082680.post-5931142825147636102009-07-15T12:29:02.021-04:002009-07-15T12:29:02.021-04:00Yes pluv, we did and I still think that stands as ...Yes pluv, we did and I still think that stands as an option for Bill, though I suspect his qualifications for SCOTUS just aren't there in comparison with the other jurists, including quite a few he appointed.<br /><br />OTOH, just how much time on the bench does the Constitution require a nominee to have?<br /><br />One suspects within that framework we could appoint Ron Jeremy or Ginger Lynn.west_rhinonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20082680.post-59794118654314230082009-07-15T11:19:39.091-04:002009-07-15T11:19:39.091-04:00Mike-one needs to remember that Sec. of State has ...Mike-one needs to remember that Sec. of State has historically been a revolving door positon,with an average tenure of app.4years.
