God, no, nothing like that!!!!!!! That is ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! what I meant to say or imply, or anything like what I think or believe. No, no, no, no, no.
In saying "Women are vastly underrepresented on the Court", I was and am agreeing with you that there are too few women on the Supreme Court.
In saying "this argument doesn't work" (emphasis added), I was talking only about the reasoning that goes "Xs are a certain proportion of the population; therefore, Xs should be proportionally represented in public office." The line from the Nix/Ag campaign is a clear example of why the logic fails.
