WASHINGTON - Last week, after noting that President Bush opined that "diversity" was one of the strengths of the U.S., this column predicted the criteria that he would use in his selection of a nominee to fill the opening left by retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor:

<SNIP>

So let's tick off her qualifications:

•White

•Fundamentalist Christian (see below)

•Sixty-year-old woman who looks like anybody's wrinkly mom, which is bound to have traction with the public, and probably senators as well (Notable, however, is the fact that in 1996, Bush described her as "a pit bull in size 6 shoes.")

•Opposes abortion rights

•Friendly with – hell, employed by! -- a high-ranking member of the administration

•Paper trail shorter than John Roberts'

<SNIP>

1. She's a W crony and Evangelical Christian

and other than that her only qualification is she has a law degree.
