If you supported the president as much as you claim, then you would also support his decision to withdraw the Miers nomination. I do.

Instead you are hellbent on having a debate that has already been settled.
It's time to move on now.

Do you really care how the Arab press is reporting this??

Well, those of us with family members in the line of fire, do care. Quite a bit.

Can you explain why our covert services, the CIA is at war with the White House? Where does this come from and who is behind it?

Then I guess the enemy is running our country. That's what you just said whether you understand that or not. And I support prosecuting the War against Terrorist Mohammedanism with prejudice more than anyone I've encountered, including this Administration.

basically think the president, if he wants to nominate Harriet Miers, he can nominate Harriet Miers. I would have no problem with that. And I think a century ago, if this had been William McKinley's America, Harriet Miers would have been a perfectly acceptable Supreme Court nominee, in the context of most late-19th Century Supreme Court nominees. That was a time when the federal government played a very limited role in American lives. Now, the Supreme Court has become the true...has become, effectively, a nine man parliament for the United States.

This is the key point - it's only because the Supreme Court has become a super-legislature that the issue of Mier's "qualifications" and political views have become so paramount. A hundred years ago, a Miers would have been perfectly acceptable to sit on the Court. But now on our side we fear we need a proven conservative only because the courts have become so politicized.

CS... Probably lots of answers to that question, and it should be investigated fully.

Why do they constantly leak information to take down a President... comprimise military operations...... why all that during war time... ??

Enquiring minds want to know.........

Yeah, there are a lot of Clintonista's there. Commies, spies. I'm sure there are a lot of foreign interests pulling strings here and there. If I worked there, I'd hate to have to worry if my fellow officers would faithfully execute their oath of allegiance to our nation first.

Yep, the Rockefeller Memo exposed the Senate Intelligence Committee Democrats intending to politicize intelligence to regain power, and now what do we see playing out before us?

So, they must have a few buddies very willing to help them.

Need to find them and try them for treason. JMHO>

I'm pretty sure I understand what I was saying better than you do. While it would be nice to say that we shouldn't care what the Arab press says because it implies that they have some influence over us, I am a bit more pragmatic than you apparently are.

YES, it does matter. Maybe shouldn't, but it does. And when our own people undercut us, it has effects, particularly on those on the front lines. The MSM lies and soldiers die.

From where I stand, I think that Luttig and anyone else with a Texas connection lost his/her chance. I am talking about the chronyism change.

Well, we don't see it the same and I'm willing to leave it at that. Trying to appease the Mohammedan media/world is a Class A-1 mistake IMO.

Worse than Clinton people, these folks are traitors. Seditionists.

I think about the people in wagon trains, on small farms, in small businesses, trying to make a go of it and to stay away from all that is government--without much success anymore.

It is the intent of the Democrats to have one party here--theirs.

Is there a thread or a trail about this issue that I can read. Do you have a link about the CIA and sedition?
