Yes she should, and in any event, Bush can hardly yank her, even if he wanted to, if she wants to proceed. What would he say? Well, I didn't read, and nobody did, her speeches, and now that I did in the WH, we didn't vet her, and now I want to yank her? Can he even yank her if he wanted to legally? The hearings should be interesting.

I screwed that one up. Let me try again.

LOL, you are the master of understatement. The only saving grace may be that if Miers is as bad as this speech portends, Arlen Spector will vote no, Roe not withstanding.

This one is a dealbreaker. Her tacit approval of activism when legislatures don't act toward some end she approves of is, well, @$#$%#%#^ terrible.

Opposing this on the merits is quite easy. There was no need for all the garbage.
