I agree with you that it makes little practical sense, but let's not get too self-righteous about the "disrespect to the constitutional process," whatever that means. After all, a little squinting is required, for example, to maintain that Cheney was from Wyoming and not from Texas.

Que? Perhaps it didn't occur in the Mural Room over cigars, but even impractical suggestions such as this one are in some way related to "advice" from the Senate.

it is an incredibily rude affront to Justice O'Connor. She has served admirably for 20 plus years, the last several where, if recollection serves me, she has been considering retirement due to the fact that her husband is ill and she wants to spend his last years with him rather than working.

OK. I have not heard this, but am willing to indulge in what some would consider an unforgivable lapse of information-gathering, and take you at your word.
This is a good rationale for rejecting their proposal on the merits, Penske, but in order to garner the apocalyptic, spittle-casting rage endemic to GOP talking points on the issue, we really need some hyperbolic, misogynistic references here to build us up to the proper level of emotion.
