Another outrageous assumption. Try again.

But I'm confused - are they representing the party or are they representing their own selfish interests, like you've accused Scalia and Alito of doing?

You've said that they're all biased because they're coming from the parties. You've also said that no SCOTUS judge should get a seat without having judicial experience first. So the obvious assumption is that we need Federal judges who aren't members of a party since the party will bias them. Your statements - you clear them up.
