>>Matt sought to pour gasoline on the feminist fire, suggesting there might be "sexism" in the criticism of Miers. Concurred Laura: "that's possible. I think that's possible."<<

My respect for Laura just took a major hit.

Much as it pains me to say so, I was disappointed in Laura's performance, which drew almost exclusively on feminist themes in defending the Miers appointment.

If that's all it took for your respect to take a "major hit" you couldn't have had much to begin with.

"My respect for Laura just took a major hit."

So you are saying that none of the criticizm directed at Miers could possibly be sexist in nature? It's not even possible?

So, you're the one making all these topsy-turvy poll numbers for the president and the economy? Do you speculate on oil prices, too?

"My respect for Laura just took a major hit."

Right. Whenever I hear of someone suggesting a possibility, my opinion of the person ratchets down several notches.
