I am beginning to see that Harriet Mier's failure to articulate an opinion on issues of law over a 35 year law career was not a brilliant piece of "strategery" by an ambitious lawyer designed to make her an appealing stealth candidate at some point in her future. Her failure to put forth originalist or even conservative opinions throughout her career is because she doesn't apparently doesn't have a sufficient grasp of basic issues to do so. Each new piece of information about the woman makes this nomination seem more and more ill-advised and ill-considered. Today, in his new conference with the head of the Palistinean terrorists, um, government, the President was asked about conservative criticism of Harriet Miers. He dismissed it as background chatter. To steal someone else's comment about the remark, isn't it wonderful to see the President being nicer to terrorists than to the people that worked to put him into office?
The same could be said about his love of illegal aliens, as well.
