Miers the wrong pick

George Will on the Miers nomination. Unsurprisingly, he's not a fan. Neither am I. While I think it admirable that Bush is very loyal to his aides, and they in return are loyal to him, the rewards for that loyalty should not include a seat on the Supreme Court. I applaud his decision to go to war in Iraq. I applaud his tax cuts. I applaud some of the ideas for the rebuilding of the Gulf Coast. I applaud his nomination of John Roberts. But Harriet Miers? If he had to go for the diversity pick he could at least have chosen someone qualified.
