It's Amazing... (vanity)
oct 21, 05 | me

It’s amazing to see (some) of us are eagerly waiting for ABA to release their ratings on Miers, while we opposed the use of the ratings on judicial selection before…

It’s amazing to see (some) of us are cheering when Bush said he didn’t look at polls… but now we use his low numbers on the polls to persuade him to change his mind…

It’s amazing to see (some) of us are okay with 2 Republican Senators demanding documents from WH… while only couple months ago we argued against giving similar documents based on Executive Privilege…

It’s amazing to see how NYT, WaPo, and other MSM outlets become reliable sources on Miers nomination, while we kept blasting them as, well, unreliable sources…

Now, I’m still agnostic on Miers’ nomination. No doubt, some of us also found that Bush nominated Miers is amazing...

It's amazing to see blatant cronyism at the highest level of government defended by the some of the party of meritocracy.

Personally, I am waiting for the ACLU to weigh in on her.

It is amazing how liberal-like some "conservatives" get when they are down.

The disappointment expressed by Specter and Leahy is enough for me to want her to clean their clocks at the confirmation hearings. However, the Senators will bloviate ad nauseum...so I don't expect her to get a word in edgewise to respond to lengthy diatribes masquerading as questions.

I think it's a strategic move to request a Mier's withdrawal when the WH refuses to release the documents. Maybe they read Krauthammer's article.;)

The nice thing about a forum like this is thatwe can express our opinion.

IMHO this should be in chat, or the smokey backroom.

It isn't that you're not right. But this ain't news.

This is why you should never nominate "stealth" candidates.
