She is pro-life and believes in interpreting the Constitution per the FF`s idea of original intent. Miers will be solid conservative justice.

>>>>You do not know that, you believe that and why?

See my RE:#86.

"Lorlee Bartos managed Miers first and only campaign for elected office to the Dallas City Council in 1989. Bartos says that Miers is pro-life. Miers good friend Judge Nathan Hecht also says that she is pro-life."

"It is the responsibility of every generation to be true to the founders' vision of the proper role of the courts in our society. If confirmed, I recognize that I will have a tremendous responsibility to keep our judicial system strong, and to help ensure that the courts meet their obligations to strictly apply the laws and the Constitution."
-Harriet Miers Acceptance Speech

That's all I have to go by. And PresBush`s personal knowledge of what kind of person Harriet Miers is.

Here are Judge Roberts comments after conformation:

"But every generation in its turn must accept the responsibility of supporting and defending the Constitution, and bearing true faith and allegiance to it. That is the oath that I just took. I will try to ensure, in the discharge of my responsibilities, that with the help of my colleagues, I can pass on to my children's generation a charter of self-government as strong and as vibrant as the one that Chief Justice Rehnquist passed on to us."

- Somewhat similar, don't you think?

Again I say you do not know, you present hearsay from Lorlee Bartos, her manager, and her "Good Friend Judge Nathan Hecht"

I absolutely stand by my last comment. You would not back this person based on that evidence - you base it solely on your trust of GWB as you stated: "PresBush`s personal knowledge of what kind of person Harriet Miers is". All that aside, the fact is both Roberts and Miers are ghosts - you have no definitive means of asserting where either of these two will rule on conservative issues (except maybe Miers is Pro-Life, good but the constitution has a somewhat larger scope).
