"There have been cronies, aka.friends/pals, of US presidents throughout our history. Some have been good, some not so good and some pretty bad. Being a crony is not a detrimental factor. Miers has been involved in legal matters for 30 years. She headed the Texas state bar association and was a managing partner in a large Texas law firm. Miers was also legal council to the POTUS. She is pro-life and believes in interpreting the Constitution per the FF`s idea of original intent."

Thank you for sharing your OPINION of Miers. I don't share it. I have heard the evidence in her favor. Were she not a Bush crony, she would not be the nominee.

Opinion in context and with substantive content is always a winner. The fact remains, Bush is the President and Miers is an old friend. So what. Better Miers then Alberto Gonzalaz.

The worst of it is, by putting up stealth nominees the Pubs pass over qualified candidates who stood and defended their beliefs when it was not popular to do so. The pubs reward "corporate gadfly's" with no track records or ability to fight for a belief.

The Rats always nominate the most opinionated, biased judges who will fight for their beliefs they can find and then we are surprised that are meek stealth nominees are turned into liberals on the SCOTUS.
