WASHINGTON -- Senators beginning what ought to be a protracted and exacting scrutiny of Harriet Miers should be guided by three rules. First, it is not important that she be confirmed. Second, it might be very important that she not be. Third, the presumption -- perhaps rebuttable but certainly in need of rebutting -- should be that her nomination is not a defensible exercise of presidential discretion to which senatorial deference is due.

Somehow a known quantity is impossible to confirmed.
Somehow Clinton got his publicly liberal nominees through the confirmation process.
I'll charge you double.
Great job tonight. I love the hard questions, that just cannot be answered!
Thanks and take care.
Good point.
How in in blazes do you know that she is a " Souter-In-A-Skirt"?
Good Night Mark
Bush said that Harriet was the most qualified woman for the job. None of the supporters of this nomination will come out and agree with him. If they won't agree with him, then why should they trust him? I guess it's because he knows her so well!
I know, it happens. ;) I realized that after the fact too. When one has to debate emotionally ignorant people, 'hit happens. LOL
You kids play nice now. The grown ups are leaving. Just remember to use mittens and stay away from the sharp objects.
Ya, except it was not the constitution, but the declaration of indepedence, and the promise of the pursuit of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, which to Keyes meant anti abortion, because fetuses = human life. That about summed it up. I found it an entirely unsatisfactory performance.
Good Night Mark
Stay well. Nice sparring on your side.
No kidding. sheesh and sha-waybal.
LOL -- trust me.
Do I get a nice good bye too, or am I on your sh*t list? :)
Good night.
LOL. Good night!
Night all. It was fun.
Goodnight Mark. Take care.
