As head of the Texas bar, she fought the ABA's pro-abortion stance, urging the ABA's policy-making committee to put the abortion issue to a vote. Which means Miers wants voters deciding the issue of abortion.

The only voters she wanted to vote were members of the ABA. The only thing she wanted them to vote on was whether to adopt a pro-abortion policy. It's a real stretch to morph that into an anti-Roe position.

Hey, keep on railing away. It makes a great smoke screen.

The more conservatives yell, the more the general public believes that Miers is a reasonable choice, and the more there is pressure on the Democrats not to filibuster her.

If I didn't know better, I'd believe you're all secret agents of Karl Rove.
