shouldn't a private organization be run without govt. intereference. Isn't that a conservative value.

Of course. But that doesn't mean that the principles private organizations promote don't say something about the values of those promoting them. If you ran a bar association, would you favor racial/sex set-asides in law firm hiring?

Come on, Dane. Your support for Miers is pushing you into some odd places.

When you began your defense of Miers, did you ever think you'd eventually find yourself on the opposite side from Bork, Rush [who never graduated from college] et. al, and on the same side as those favoring hard race-based quotas?

They can run their organization anyway they see fit, what I'm against is government mandates, and you have no evidence that Ms. Meirs is full aquare for that.
