But this pre-emptive jihad some of you have declared on Bush and Miers ought to be embarrassing to you.

It is this kind of rhetoric that is inappropriate and uncalled for. So now, Miers opponents are akin to Islamic Fascists launching a jihad?

I have fought against that ideology sir, and have endured hardships and family separations to do so.

I will add now being a "Jihadist" to being a "Sexist", "Elitist" (from the White House attacks).

Glad to know you all want Miers so much you are willing to sew these seeds of such hostility. Perhaps it is all of you supporters of this nasty episode who should take a breath and look in the mirror.

Stop with the drama, will you?

Look, I want to give Miers a hearing, and then make a decision. It is jihadi-like (and, yes, I use that term intentionally) to want to drive her out of the process before she gets an opportunity to answer the queries of the Senators.

You say that Bush has a "my-way-or-the-highway" attitude, while you take the very same stance yourself.

Bush has NEVER disappointed in his judicial picks, yet now you think he is betraying you for one of the most important decisions of his presidency.

I just don't get it.
