Joseph Farah: "Miers to Withdraw"

[Theodore R.]

Is Farah now saying that Dan Rather was right in the fall of 2004?

[Theodore R.]

If Miers does withdraw, is Gonzales the certain replacement nominee? Then we might be longing for her nomination!

[samtheman]

keep secret the preferential treatment the president received as a young man to enter the Texas Air National Guard

Ah ha! Those memos came from Harriet! She had one of those fancy Microsoft standard typewriters all along! Why do you think she never got married?!

[Revolting cat!]

[Rokke]

Does WND still claim airplane contrails are a government effort to pacify the world with chemicals?

[Americanwolf]

For the love of Pete.... the liberals and rabid leftist cannot lets this TNG thing go can they????

[Moral Hazard]

Damn it, I was hoping she would withdraw, but now that Joseph Farah says she will there's obviously no chance of it actually happening.

[Theodore R.]

Columnist Farah supported GWB in 2004 in part because he thought that Rather had used forged documents to discredit GWB. Also because of the Swift Boat Vets. Now Farah says he regrets his 2004 vote.

I'm no great fan of the Miers nomination, but Joseph Farah comes across like a simpering twit with this nonsense.

[RichInOC]

I said it before, and I'll say it now: The day the Republicans pull a nominee because the Democrats might ask stupid, unfair questions about old, played-out bullcrap and make themselves look even more obnoxious and bitter than they already do...is the day I quit the party.

[TheDon]

Poor Joe is just screaming for attention.

Libs, Cons Punch Selves Silly in Miers Rope-a-Dope

The politics of the Harriet Miers nomination seem to be a complete a zero-sum game. The more the White House tries to reassure fuming conservatives that the Supreme Court nominee will "vote the right way" the more the Democratic opposition ramps up to oppose her. The Bush administration looks to be in a box with no sure way out. Unless the unthinkable is true: Maybe George W. Bush is far smarter than we think.

This is where President Bush — or someone on his team — might have a clearer read of the political situation than it first appears. Conservatives opposed to Miers are essentially validating Miers as a conservative lite insufficiently opposed to abortion. Practically, that's just where Bush should want her to be.

For even as Republicans clash one against another, Democrats are still standing by, flat-footed and flummoxed and utterly unsure of what to do next. They have some hard choices to make because Bush chose Miers.

If he must, Bush will fight the Miers fight without conservative help, but against Democrats unsure of what to do.

This along with shards of Republican loyalty might be enough to get her on the court. If not, Bush goes back and selects someone else even more qualified, having spent the energies of all possible opposition. Harriet Miers will worship him regardless.

[Mike Bates]

You can take that to the bank.

Right.

[PresidentFelon]

Farah is a nutcase and little he says is to be believed. I deleted my link to WND a long time ago. WorldNetdaily.com has about as much credibility as their favorite intelligence source, DEBKA, has.

Well, that part should be easy enough.

...having spent the energies of all possible opposition.

Someone needs to put down the crack pipe.

[wingnutx]

I wish I could believe a word that Farah has to say.

[narby]

Farah is an idiot. He jumped the shark years ago.

[Non-Sequitur]

If I took everything Farah said to the bank I'd be broke.

[BARLF]

LOL....If he said I really, really ,really hate G.W. Bush?

[Steven W.]

I thought Farah had slipped off the deep end years ago but this is the height of absurdity - errh insanity!
