NY Times nailed the scoop on the Miers nomination. I know that one dude mentioned it some months ago, but the week before they were touting her and it came to pass. I found that to be vey curious.
Counselors should be reviewing decisions and documents for legality and for potential legal pitfalls. I see no reason she can't continue in that capacity. She really does seem like a bright, capable, very well intentioned woman.
This was such a dumb stunt I would fire them too.
Has anyone been applying the Coulter/Wills rule for qualifications to the SC yet? As far as I can tell only Alito has the necessary old school tie they require to approve someone's application for the job.
Just think of them as the Conservative's HR Department. Submit your application in writing before you talk to the President.
THANK YOU. They think way to much of themselves.
Very short weekend. Went up Sat morning, back Sunday afternoon.
If anyone finds a media outlet that hasn't totally lost their mind, let me know. I want news from these jerks not speculation! Fox News was my last hope, now I just sorta guess what is going on in the world.
I would like to see The Pres appoint a handful of pit bulls and get a little attitude for the remainder of his term.
I think the off year elections will have a very low turn out, and will be decided by base turn out. I would get them fired up if possible.
Oh, come on. Don't you all ever have to go to the doctor or the dentist? That's when I read Time. In the waiting room.
That is a bulls--t statement. Not once on the campaign trail or speech did he make that statement. He was supposed to have made that statement to Fred Barns in an interview.
Naw, I am on strike. I am not going to the Dentist or the Doc until AFTER death. Figure I will have pleanty of time then. Got to FREEP NOW!
Well, I guess it's got to be Alito, then. I just find it frustrating that the same people who a few months back were demanding that judicial nominees get a fair shake just did one in! Frankly, I hope that the President nominates another Roberts just to piss Ann off.:)
He was elected
And flattened Fallujah
Happy base.
Then he went kinder
And gentler, the hat
always falls near the rack.
When Harrie withdrew
The base gave him one more chance
but we are watching
Yep, thanks for taking the Constitutional Option off the table "pundits". Funny what a fanatical faith so many supposedly thinking people have in Talking Heads with ZERO real world political experience.
But stop the Revolution for my part. Fighting ourselves is too much hard work. Let's us have war to the knife. After the Libby smear job, I am in "No Quarter" mode. Pick a harder hard righter W. As much fun as it is yanking the sexist elitist caveman "conservatives" chains, this is too serious plus I need to catch up on my sleep.
Well, I guess I'd rather be bloodying the Democrats instead of those who are on my side. I just hope that if Alito or anyone like him is nominated, it'll satisfy those who haven't been able to zip it for the last month or so.
The President should never have taken back his yellow cake claims made during the SOTU. They were true.
That is the genesis of all this craziness.
"If Card was a big factor in the Miers pick he should be moved elsewhere"
Like out of DC.
And we won't forget the squishy, party before principle republicans who think 'conservative' is a dirty word.
She wrote that?
That is the house behind the motel where Norman Bates lived with the dessicated body of his dead mother.
