Oh please. Miers is a pro-life, evangelical, mission-sponsoring Christian fundamentalist who chaired the committee that selected Judge Pryor from Alabama (**the** most right-wing Judge on the federal bench in America today), Judge Janice Rogers Brown from California, as well as Chief Justice Roberts.

The only thing betrayed by President Bush's SCOTUS pick would be the bias against him from fringers.

Biased because I don't want runway spending?
Biased because I don't want illegal immigration overwhelming our ablility to handle them?

And that message resonates soooo clearly to the masses. Yeah, right.

Media continue to mis-cite Roberts's "settled law" comment to suggest his views on Roe v. Wade Adblock In their coverage of Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts Jr., numerous media outlets have continued to baselessly suggest that Roberts's 2003 pledge to "fully and faithfully apply" Roe v. Wade as the "settled law of the land" signals that he would vote to uphold the ruling if confirmed to the Supreme Court. In fact, Roberts's description of Roe as "settled law" in the context of an appellate court nomination indicates nothing about either his personal views on abortion, or whether he would vote to uphold Roe if confirmed to the high court. As an appellate judge, Roberts must uphold the law and adhere to Supreme Court precedent or face the threat of reversal; his description of Roe as "settled law" merely amounted to a pledge to do his job. But as a Supreme Court justice, Roberts would be free to reconsider and overturn prior Supreme Court rulings, including Roe.

Now, what's my point? She is a talented and experienced lawyer, who was representing her client's(employer's)(GWB's) position in her position as counsel. Saying she faithfully applied GWB's principles to her committee's assigned tasks makes no greater statement then the fact she has the full faith and backing of GWB in her Justice seat.

I am not an evangelical Christian, though her mission sponsoring(have a source at hand by chance?) is impressive, though without details it still lends itself to be able to be interpreted in many different ways. "Have faith in my faith in her Faith" - GW Bush/Southhack

Nothing personal Southhack, but I've known Mormon missionaries who are incredibly liberal when it comes to helping the poor dark skinned people and such. "Be known by your Good Works" is interpreted in many different ways by many people.
