OH Mark, Just so you know... Bill O, called someone a "Big Dope" last night on his show. I think it was in the mail segment.
I think you should sue! :) LOL

Good job on the lawsuit. Was it the lady in Tex yesterday that swayed you? Are you going to talk about Daley today?

Posted this earlier from a set of things asked on another web site, but posted here on FR. I cleaned it up for easier viewing and answered a few of their questions.
Record of Harriet Miers?
1970Graduated from Southern Methodist University Law School
1970-1972Clerked for U.S. District Court Judge Joe Estes
1972-2001Joined Texas law firm, Locke, Purnell
1985Elected president of the Dallas Bar Association
1986-1989Member of the State Bar board of directors
1989-1991Elected and served one term on the Dallas City Council
1992Elected president of the Texas State Bar
1993-1994Worked as counsel for Bush's gubernatorial campaign
1995-2000Appointed chairwoman of Texas Lottery Commission by Gov. George Bush
1996Became president of Locke, Purnell, and the first woman to lead a major Texas law firm
1998Presided over the merger of Locke, Purnell with another big Texas firm, Liddell, Sapp, Zivley, Hill & LaBoon, and became co-managing partner of the resulting megafirm, Locke Liddell & Sapp
2000Represented Bush and Chaney in a lawsuit stemming from their dual residency in Texas while running in the Presidential primary - ???????? Bush was and is a TEXAS, Chaney was and is a citizen of Wyoming, not Montana as is often said.
2001Selected as staff secretary for President Bush
2003Promoted to Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy
2004Selected as White House Counsel
2005 - Appointed to supreme Court?
There are many important questions that need to be addressed, including:
What policies did she advocate for on the Dallas City Council?
What was her record at the head of the scandal-ridden Texas Lottery Commission? She cleaned it up!
What cases did she take on while working as a corporate lawyer in private practice, and what positions did she fight for?
What has she written or said in and outside of her law practice about her views on constitutional issues like privacy, the "commerce clause" or equal protection As White
House council Alberto Gonzales played a pivotal role in softening America's stance on torture. Flat out lie about Gonzales.
What positions has Harriet Miers advocated for in the same role?
Has she ever publicly distanced herself from George W. Bush? I certainly hope not
It's important that we move quickly in answering these questions.
We need to make sure the facts about her views are known.
This kind of decentralized research may never have been tried before at this scale. Yes it has, FR wrote a report on Clinton's illegal sale of technology to China which is in the Congressional Record. Go look it up.
But a Supreme Court nominee with a record only the president really knows is a new national challenge. If we act quickly, we can meet that challenge together. Yes we can, we can support the President in his selections for the courts.
Please pitch in by taking some time to research today, and post what you find.
Just had to answer a few of the questions and the record. I do not know if the record is true as posted here, but my answers are true and factual.
