"Angry right" is an okay label too, but I was having so much fun being labeled as "from the dark side."
At any rate, we don't don't know if there is an upper hand here. The GOP is asserting that the angry right is a minority of cynical malcontents who don't vote GOP anyway. They represent the sexist, elitist, religious bigot factions of humanity.
'twill be an interesting play out. The angry right at least got to vent, that has to be worth something, eh?
I've had a few run-ins with some cynical malcontents in recent days who had nothing good to say about Bush, Miers or myself for that matter. This anti Miers effort is being waged mainly by conservative pundits who do represent the minority opinion. Constructive criticism is fine. In this case, however, why not allow Miers her opportunity to speak out in the Senate Q&A session. This is America and we all have a right to be heard. Freedom of speech is great. Just what are you afraid of? You might like what you hear.
