Five or so people on this post asked you to please tell us what the evidence is that makes Miers an "originalist." We're still waiting...

He was probably quoting Marvin Olasky, Bush advisor and someone who has spoken to people who know her well: "She's an originalist - that's the way she takes the Bible and that's her approach to the Constitution as well."

Also, her background is in Contract Law which is 100% applicable to Constitutional Law. I wish all the SC justices could start interpreting the constitution properly as a contract.

Harriet Miers is an Evangelical Christian. She is a very committed EC. Part of being an EC is taking the Bible literally. People who know her for 25 years have gone on the record to point out that she believe the Bible literally and the Constitution literally. But that doesn't do it for people who don't understand EC. OK how about the fact that Focus on the family backs her. She was described by her one time campaign manager ( ran for something in 1989) Described her as being extremely pro life?
Proof? Blood on a piece of paper proof, no but if there were, we would have a battle royal over her.
Those who are don't trust W are doing the same thing liberals did in response to the horror stories in NOLA. They showed their real feelings about Black people by being so willing to believe every bad story about their conduct. One tenth of one percent of those stories were true. Now these "conservatives" who have so quickly jumped to mock W as stupid, etc. have proved that deep down inside they agree with Chuck Schumer' "dumb frat boy" crap.and have believed it all along. Friends like that....
