I haven't followed O'Connor, but Ginzberg gives me the heeby jeebies. I think women should be well-represented on the high court, and I'm sure there are women out there who could serve as well as the best in history. I saw an old Charlie Rose interview with O'Connor. She said the Supreme Court handled cases from every aspect of human relationships which had already been heard by disagreeing lower courts and most of the cases were such that good arguments could be made for either side. I suppose that is a fair assessment, although it doesn't account for the belief systems the Founders had in mind.

I think back to the song by Aaron Tippin: Now Daddy didn't like trouble, but if it came along Everyone that knew him knew which side that he'd be on He never was a hero, or this county's shinin' light But you could always find him standing up For what he thought was right He'd say you've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything Now we might have been better off or owned a bigger house If Daddy had done more givin' in or a little more backing down But we always had plenty just living his advice Whatever you do today you'll have to sleep with tonight He'd say you've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything Now I know that things are different than they were in Daddy's days But I still believe what makes a man really hasn't changed You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
