How are these different from the reactions here at FR?
Here's an out-there theory. I think that Bush might be provoking them into a filibuster of a "kamikaze" candidate, so that he can then nominate a judicial conservative and they will appear hypocritical if they vote that one down also.
Some of those quotes look like they came from THIS forum.
lol....well, if she has no record to scrutinize then how does this poster know so much about her?
My outraged bleating is not feigned.
Well, seeing how the whackos are reacting makes me feel a lot better about this choice.
I didn't know that there was a designated swing seat. Where do Democrats get this stuff?

If by "we" you mean the white house instead of people who believe in conservatism, then you are probably correct.
What do people expect, that the DUmmies will applaud anyone Bush could possibly nominate? David Souter himself was denounced as "anti-choice" and "pro-big business" right out of the gate.

You ought to put together a list of comments by some freepers who are now link with the left on the selection of Meirs to be fair.
Frankly these comments you posted are similar to plenty I read here today on FR.
Mark my words, a female nominee will get a royal going-over - far beyond that of a male or minority nominee. Hope she's got a steel gut to endure what she's facing in the weeks ahead.

{The Supreme Court is going to have to rule on whether a sitting President can be indicted when there is no House Judiciary Committee willing to vote for impeachment. The Supreme Court is going to have to issue a raft of rulings on issues stemming from the Fitzgerald indictments, the DeLay case, the entire mess of worms on K Street and in the Congress. Bush is no longer thinking about his "legacy". He's thinking about remaining a free man. This choice tells us that they know that they are guilty and are facing very serious legal consequences. Miers may be all that can keep Bush out of jail, perhaps for treason.}
That paragraph made me laugh out loud.
Another Souter!!!!!!!
I'm leaving the party and voting for Pat Buchanan. (/sarc)
