Go take some Midol, Ann.

Should someone start a ping list?

Ping to the weekly AC.

"Unfortunately for Bush, he could nominate his Scottish terrier Barney, and some conservatives would rush to defend him, claiming to be in possession of secret information convincing them that the pooch is a true conservative and listing Barney's many virtues – loyalty, courage, never jumps on the furniture ..."

And now let the personal attacks on ann coulter begin...

[gondramB]

Ann lost me by supporting McCarthy and then going after President Bush over Roberts.

Perhaps Miers law school is not a top school - that's a valid complaint but she is ranked as one of the top 100 lawyers in the country and that makes up for it.

[BonnieJ]

She's gone too far this time..."still boozing it up"...I didn't get any farther than that. Why she is such an icon to some conservatives is often quite beyond me.

[GRRRRR]

I can't believe she is actually saying what she is saying...somehow the unhinged have to become hinged again...

[hang 'em]

By contrast, at the top universities, you come face to face with the devil every day, and you learn all his little tropes and tricks.

How true this is.

[Malesherbes]

"ranked No. 52 by U.S. News and World Report." Well, I guess that settles it. On the other hand, maybe I'll ask for a second oponion.

[right right]

Was it Frum who said, "Miers is not qualified even if she votes right." Ann, Frum, Will etc need to remember who the President is, and who the pencil pushers are.

First, Bush has no right to say "Trust me." He was elected to represent the American people, not to be dictator for eight years.

Boy he's a uniter not a divider thats for sure. He's got Ann Coulter and the Moonbats at the DU using the same "dictator" line now.

And as to nominating his former chauffer to head NASA that Ann quipped. That probably wouldn't be a bad idea. Lord knows he couldn't do worse considerin the only reason we're still sending up astroanauts is the Russians are letting us use their technology.

[ilgipper]

As a pretty sharp non-Northeasterner who did not attend an Ivy League school, I think I see the problem now. None of the inside the beltway, northeastern elitists on the right like to have an non-northeastern elitist enter their little club. Now the picture is getting clearer. This nominee looks more and more to have the right viewpoints, she is just not from the right place.

I, too, have my questions, but this assault from the rightwing pundits is actually turning me off.

Well, well, well.

I like Annie Oakley...but she's missed it the second time. First Roberts now Miers....she lookin' worse and worse...I guess Annie's boob job has affected her. To bad.

[A.Hun]

First, Bush has no right to say "Trust me."

Yes he does! He has told the nation the truth at every turn. He has extended the conservative message in all areas. He has taken heat, and kept going. He doesn't deserve this from Coulter just because she is p*ssed. She didn't like Roberts very much either. She was wrong.

[robertpaulsen]

All in all, I agree.

Bush owes us. We deserve a strong conservative nominee. We got him there -- with a Republican House, a Republican Senate, and a majority of Republican governorships.

It's his second term -- what's he politicking for?

[Rummyfan]

Love the new graphic!!!!!

Boo Yah!!!!

[Cicero]

What she was saying with that "boozing it up" comment is that long before Bush straightened out and saw the light, long before he became president, there were people fighting hard to straighten out our courts. They (and we) have been fighting for 25 years. Now finally Bush comes along, has a chance to put a nail in the coffin of the judicial tyrants, and he blows it witha lightweight nomination.

You may not agree with this judgment, but I don't see why it's so far out of line.

[goldstategop]

I love her! Yes, the Supreme Court is a place for people who know the law well and can stand up to liberal blandishments. Its not a dumping ground for political hacks and cronies. The President is not a god and doesn't deserve conservatives' unquestioned fealty. Even a President makes a mistake and this is a big one.

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

[Sabramerican]

There is a bank teller in Texas- who once helped Bush decide on the gift between a toaster and a wall clock- that is hoping to be the next Chairperson of the Fed.
