[Harriet Miers, as White House Counsel] vetted Roberts, and all the other picks for the Appeals Courts!

Earth to Cold Heart.

To vet is not to choose.

Pick up a dictionary while you are out.

Bush does the choosing.

Nobody else does that.

Vetting and what Miers did and does was to take potential candidates, give them questionaires and the like to fill out, and process them to the various places that check them for accuracy. I suspect her opinion counts as well, but she does not choose. Cluck, cluck!
