I respect people who feel things passionately. I do. But when someone is a judge that is not what they should bring to the bench. It is not really passion except in rare instances that serves the bench well. It is rather an ability to understand the law and follow it.
I am up at 3:30 reading the op-ed pages and getting ready to be on the air by 6 A.M. on the set of 'Morning Joe ' and after three hours of TV and two hours on the radio it is only 12 noon.
