But I believe your expectations are the result of comments made by people other than Bush. Bush is a man who is consistent to a fault. And he is a man of his word.

Bush and his campaign manger know what kind of judges conservatives where expecting him to appoint and the reason a lot of them including Christians voted for him.

You can split all the hairs you want but if President Bush deliberately let people believe what he knew to be a lie regardless of the source of it in order to get their support he is not an honest person and his word is no good.

If you knowingly gain from deceit even by silence or inaction you are not honest.

You have been given other instances where a poster said he did not keep his word. I do not know personally if he did so or not in those instances.

I do know he did not keep his word in his first campaign to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem if he was elected.

The candidate may or may not be a good judge but the people who are concerned have every right to be so.

The record of Republicans and all politicians in general does not encourage anyone of any reasonable intelligence to give much credence to the plea from their lips to "just trust me".

And you know for a fact that Miers is not exactly who Bush says she is? You are accusing a good man of lying. That is a serious charge. Serious charges should not be made if you don't have the evidence to back them up. What is your evidence that Miers will not rule from the bench EXACTLY as Bush says she will?
