tejek,

re:That's not what you said initially.

It's what I meant - if you need clarification to my meaning try some dialog - not accusations.

re:I might add that the percentage numbers for women in important gov't jobs appear to be artificially low when compared to the participation of women in the general workforce.

The numbers aren't artificially low they are what they are - you probably mean they don't reflect the numbers in other fields. Depending on the job, I suspect we could find numbers from 0-100% done by women. I think we can agree that in government a job that doesn't require physical strength or a bias towards men that the eventual representation should someday approach 50%.

re:........I believe he had selected Roberts a long time ago...

I said the same - I'll bet they were picking a replacement for Rehnquist and didn't have the women candidates screened to their satisfaction.
