Reading Miers on abortion ...

Abortion is one of the least of my concerns because it is still voluntary. The Court has the capacity to do greater evil than can be done with abortion. That speech had several red flags in it.

It isn't the least of my concerns. Insensitivity to the value and worth of helpless innocent life is a huge red flag that puts all other red flags in its shadow.

Miers' supposed solidarity with the pro-life worldview was Bush's chief selling point for this nomination.

If abortion is Miers' strong point, this nomination threatens to set new standards for SCOTUS disasters.

It is apparent you know little about the inherent evil that is abortion. Here are some stats:

· 1996 1,365,700
· 1995 1,363,700
· 1994 1,431,000
· 1993 1,500,000
· 1992 1,528,900
· 1991 1,556,500
· 1990 1,608,600
· 1988 1,590,800
· 1985 1,588,600
· 1980 1,553,900
· 1973 774,600
· 40 MILLION ABORTIONS SINCE 1973 and the average per year is still over 1.3 million

I can think of no greater evil that the courts have ever perpetrated.
