...it's impolite to refer to people in your posts without including them in the "To" line... Yes, the Howlin Rule of Proper Internet Etiquette.
Call me crazy, but she doesn't strike me as one to scrupulously adhere to the standards established by Emily Post or the Marquis de Queensbury.

Well, that's between you and her. I prefer to form my opinions one at a time, and Howlin's been very nice to me over the years I've known her.

They always have their wish list of candidates, not knowing if they could or would serve on the S.C..After watching what they've done to Harriet Miers, who in their right mind with accept the offer?

You're certainly entitled to your opinion, and I'm sure that she's a perfectly reasonable woman in non-online forum-based settings, but c'mon!

Ann Coulter really debased herself the other day. What was that she said? When Bush was "boozing it up"? Thought we had Paul Begala on the line....

Neither would I.
However, if we were to go by the manner in which she conducts herself here, I can only say that her bedside manner in real life would probably make Nurse Ratched cringe.

Brit Hume says Kristol and Buchannan are conservative icons......when did that happen? After watching and listening to Ann morph into a Bush bashing shrew, I'm befuddled beyond confused. :-(

By nominating a stealth conservative to avoid having the debate, Bush has basically said to outspoken conservatives . . . if you want to be nominated to a high court position, you better cool it.
Bush did not do this intentionally, of course. But it is the implied message: To all conservatives who publicize and debate their views in public, we give you our moral support. But when the rewards are handed out, you will be passed over for others who kept their opinions secret.

I'd guess that somebody forgot to consult her before nominating. She was OTR about Roberts, too. Still is.

Get 51 non-RINOs in the Senate, and you'll see more glasnost from a conservative president.

Hard for me to say. I'm a pretty nasty one, myself.

Bork was born in March of 1927. He is now over 78 years old. And, he'd still be a better pick than Miers!

"Why would a lawyer who has never seemed to chase after fame or establishment intellectual credentials suddenly long for the embrace of the blue state intelligentsia? Isn't it more likely that her "taut, nervous, anxious" personality would not feel especially comfortable mingling in such a foreign crowd?"HUH??? Miers hooked her star with President Bush in 1989. Around the same time she was born again and became a Republican. The girl's got timing.

I've got to agree with CL on the issue of citing a FReeper in a post without welcoming said FReeper into the ongoing discussion. I'm not trying to hijack here, but I have seen a lot of this going on lately and it p!sses me off to no end. At best, it's lazy; worst, cowardly. Usually, it is a lazy coward. Yeesh! I need a nice cold beer.

Sorry for that.
I honestly have no problem with telling others what I think of them, regardless of how critical my opinion might be.
If I had any hesistation whatsoever in expressing my honest opinion I'm certain that I would have a lot more FRiends on this forum.
But if what I did really was that tactless, then I apologize.
