The new republic is now reporting this tidbit, if true, ugh:

http://www.tnr.com/etc.mhtml?pid=2832

In 1990 Miers voted for a 7 percent property tax increase during her short tenure on the Dallas City Council. And Miers's long affiliation with the ABA will serve up lots of interesting tidbits that are unlikely to please social and legal conservatives. For instance, she apparently submitted the following report to the ABA's House of Delegates. Here are two of the report's recommendations:

Supports the enactment of laws and public policy which provide that sexual orientation shall not be a bar to adoption when the adoption is determined to be in the best interest of the child. ...

Recommends the development and establishment of an International Criminal Court.

I think you guys need to wait 24 hrs. because within the last hour Rush has just reported that the new Supreme Court cand. is an evangelical Christian who attempted to remove the pro-abortion slant of the Texas ABA.

Her "serving up reports" on behalf of the ABA does not indicate her personal position.

The vote on propertytax increase speaks for itself.

Has anybody found evidence of her position with regard to the 2nd amendment?

"Recommends the development and establishment of an International Criminal Court."

I sure hope this isn't true. I am almost positive President Bush is STRONGLY against this so I find it hard to believe he would pick someone who believes in it.
