Why is Bush going to the mat over the mediocre Miers? Ego trumps logic.
Who in the heck is this know-nothing bob novak trying to fool? There's no way this nobody could have inside washington info!
It's on the Senators web pages and has been in the rags for crying out loud.
The Senators should be more concerned with saving their own necks. Future employment or higher political aspirations may be tied to what kind of judge Miers would become.

He is trying to FOOL the other pundit elitisits who have the HEADS in their BUTTS. Aand if you object to this nomination you are blackmailing the Republican party. The party has been LOYAL to te cause, and liostening to critics will cause your HAIR to fall out. If you UNAPPEASABLES would just go awy and shut up. The party can WIN without the likes of KOOKS like Buchannan and Limbaugh who don't pick the nominee the PRESIDENT does. Your arguments are illogical crap. Grow up and blow away you ignorant fools.
In the case of Bush, step in doo doo and then demand that your sidekicks wipe it off. Hmmm. Wonder if they will lower themselves.
You have been so convinced that you could influence this pick by making a lot of noise from day one.
You have totally ignored the fact that this President is head strong and will use his executive privilege and constitutional right to the fullest.
If she gets confirmed, we're not going to know by 2008 what kind of justice she is. Her true colors as a justice will start to show one way or the other once the new president comes in.

Oh puhleeze. We know exactly what kind of justice she is. There is no doubt. Open your eyes, she's a female justice.
Signed,
Far right, unappeasable, sexist extortionist.

You know, he is just another one of those closet liberal "talking heads" who have neve penned anything in support of Conservative values!
They are all phonies and traitors!
We should put our trust in Harriet instead! < /_sarcasm>
"Well here you are on FR as of 2004. But you know 'Bush bots' eh?"
I bought a couple of PEG's books in years ago.
She won't be able to depend on me as a customer again.
Good luck writing for the RATS, PEG.

LMAO.
Oh BTW, the only(whom you think) "omnipotent" person who you pictured, that has ever been elected to a public office, now works for the ACLU.
Miers is toast.
Fatally, Bush has made conservatism toast also, totally wiping out all that Reagan had done and setting our nation on a course of disaster as Bush's multiple failures will assure Hillary Clinton as president--the conservatives stay home in 2008.
Outstanding!
I will nominate you for your conservative drama queen antics, hereby named the "jellybean"(due to President Reagan's fondness of that candy).
Your competitors for the "jellybean" for 2005 are robert bork, george will, bill kristol, michelle malkin, phyllis schafley, cal thomas, david frum, ann coulter, paul weyrich, pat buchanan, and bob barr.
I support Bush. I am disappointed but support this nomination.
Bush's prior record on judicial nominations is not merely good. It is outstanding. So I wonder ... Why would he nominate a clearly mediocre Meirs?
I'll speculate: Bush's team reasons that Stevens is 85 and unlikely to make it to the end of Bush's term. How does that change the calculus of this whole controversy? I'll speculate again: Appoint Harrient Meirs, who Bush knows will be a reliable conservative vote; and husband political capital for what will be the greatest political battle of the last quarter-century.
The point is that there may be issues about which we are not fully aware that are having a practical and immediate impact on Bush's decision-making.
