A GOP talking head on Fox News just said the following: If you support our troops, approve Harriet Miers for the Supreme Court.
I’ll just let that one stand for itself. We’re all doomed. She may be a fine lawyer, but she shouldn’t be confirmed. George Will:
“Furthermore, there is no reason to believe that Miers’s nomination resulted from the president’s careful consultation with people capable of such judgments. If 100 such people had been asked to list 100 individuals who have given evidence of the reflectiveness and excellence requisite in a justice, Miers’s name probably would not have appeared in any of the 10,000 places on those lists.”
Her only significant qualification is that of being Bush’s friend. No matter your political stripe, how you can be pleased with her?

there’s no way she will be confirmed by the Senate. too much political heat all around for both parties. Bush may not be up for re-election, but many senators are. Miers is just too much of a crap shoot. and thankfully, senators on both sides are acknowledging this. but Bush must be on something to be acting the way he has been these last few months. the old boy has been spent.
