If you don’t read this site on the weekend, you miss some of the best posts. Luckily, I occasionally do a handy guide on Mondays to summarize and link to the weekend’s posts:

• If you read just one post from the weekend, read this one. It looks at how the Supreme Court has used the phrase “proportional representation.” Turns out the Court has used the phrase in the exact same way as those much-derided pointy-headed scholars. The post is titled “Harriet Miers vs. The United States Supreme Court.”

• I have recently initiated a new series: Postcards from the Ledge. The series is a new semi-regular feature of this site, detailing revelations about Harriet Miers that have driven your gentle host out onto the window ledge. This weekend featured two new installments:

  1) A post that notes Miers’s support for affirmative action set-asides; and

  2) A post that responds to Paul Mirengoff’s assertion that the set-asides revelation was nothing new.

• I join N.Z. Bear’s online blogger poll by declaring unequivocally: I Oppose the Miers Nomination.

• I note Ann Althouse’s declared opposition to the Miers nomination, and ask whether Hugh Hewitt will notice.

• The Angry Clam asks: Hugh Hewitt: Will He Give Up? Of course not, Clam.

• I note the best evidence yet that Miers has the votes: Chuck Schumer’s claim that she doesn’t.

• Finally, there is a cool link to an awesome optical illusion.
