"I'm not as worried about a nearly two decade old political contribution as I am about Reid, Schumer and Feinstein's reactions."
That is the reason I am withholding judgement right now, as well. Susan Ostrich was on Greta last night, and she was absolutely delighted with the pick. Now, if all of the good things being said about Meirs are true, then why are so many dems pleased?
Some have suggested that this is a strategy being used by the dems to throw us off. It's possible, I guess, but it does not seem likely to me.
I do support President Bush, but I feel like we are missing something here. Hopefully we will find out soon what it is, and everyone will feel better.
I agree with you. I'm sure that we're going to find something out over time. However I doubt that whatever it is will make everybody feel better. I would like to think that I could trust President Bush to make a good choice. However his inaction over the borders, his willingness to hold court with political correctness in the war on terror, his out of control spending, and his apparent lack of resolve for a gay marriage amendment is making me think that we're watching the final emperor fiddle while Rome burns and that with the next election we're going to be entering a new dark age of democratic rule. With the demographics being what they are, I don't see how we can avoid it.
John 9:4: "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work."
I am starting to think the Democrats smell blood and feel that letting uberconservatives take her down will be more effective and easier than them taking her down.
It is possible that they are fuel on the fire because they have nothing else. She is unknown.
That may be what we are missing...and I think we will know soon.
