Vkince, why did you suddenly drop your disbelief that Reid came out in
support of the lady? Are you a bit embarrassed that you found yourself at
odds with your party leadership, who have from what I have seen thus far at
least said that Ms. Miers deserves a fair hearing and that prejudgement
(like what you have been engaging in) is not appropriate? And why have you
rather abruptly discontinued your discourse in the tilt-rotor thread--aren't
you gonna respond to Guy's points, or do they make you uncomfortable (just
as your laughable position that the USAF only wants the CV-22 for the CSAR
role later made you "uncomfortable", so to speak?)? H'mmmm...is this what
you teach your students? When you get something wrong, or the other guy
presents a more cogent argument, just ignore it, run away, and declare
victory? Sad...

Yeah, it is really sad for folks like you that Ms. Miers actually
*practiced* law in the real world and did not confine her "experience" (term
used very loosely) to rambling about the hallowed halls of academia in
perpetuity, huh?
