John says: But Thomas was massively unqualified for the court. ABA says by 12-2 (turns out 1 member recused): qualified. John says: Actually, it looks entirely commensurate with my judgment. Unbelievable. Edit: I simply can't argue with that logic. Actually, I think John is on faily solid ground. There are only 3 categories and the last 4 Supreme Court nominees (2 by Bush and 2 by Clinton) received unaninomous votes as "well qualified". The fact that none of the 15 voted for Thomas as well qualified and 2 actually voted for him as non-qualified means that he falls well short of the others on the bench. Grade inflation can happen even outside of school and that looks like exactly what has happened here. It would be much clearer if the 3 categories were "support", "neutral", and "oppose". Slacker
