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 fact remains, Bush is the President and Miers is an old friend"
Exactly, a crony. Charles Krauthammer put it this way in urging Bush to withdraw her nomination: "There are 1,084,504 lawyers in the United States. What distinguishes Harriet Miers from any of them, other than her connection with the president?"
We don't kow that. It could be, but nobody sems to know.
