Sure. My point is that I would so much rather have a decision handed down that was considered on actual merits ( we might disagree, but at least I would be able to see some sort of real consideration and not what amounts to talking points from various lobbyists ). A judge that has zero exposure in that area is at best 50/50 and regardless of the ruling I will be annoyed that a person with zero knowledge is declaring how something he knows little to no about can be used ( just like I am more and more annoyed about political class in Washington, but I am more inclined to believe these days they know exactly what they are doing -- serve their own interests ).

To your point, it is absolutely not panacea ( new blood is inevitably ending in government and the result so far is in line with what you said ), but it would at least be a starting point.
