And let’s not forget that he originally nominated his secretary! I mean, come on!!............................
Well he did not nominate his secretary, he gave us Alito and Roberts. The Great Ronald Reagan showed no remorse over his 2 pro abortion candidates to the high court? He wanted Sandra at his funeral. His personal notes now reveal he had no regrets over Sandra.Not meaning to Reagan bash, just pointing out that his record fails compared to President Bush in many ways. President Bush also never pulled troops out with tail between legs.
As for possibly appointing secretary?? She told him she would over turn Roe, I was in the room :) I imagine she told him she would do all things in Respect to Christ and the unborn children.
He probably thought he could not get the others through.

I always believed Harriet Miers sincerity, too. W is a good longterm planner, and I think he was betting that Ginsburg would retire if another woman had replaced O’Connor. Alito could have been nominated to replace Ginsburg, et voila! 3 conservative judges in an eight year Republican administration.
I also did not fault him at all for the Dubai Ports deal. I live in a container port city, and respect the business instincts of Bush, the committee that had oversight of foreign deals, the admin capabilities of an ally of ours in the ME, and a real red flag for me was Schumer’s protectionism of some union dock workers in Miami who would have lost their jobs in the takeover. It was when they felt threatened, that the whole hysteria blew up -— abetted by a lot of radio talk show hosts, sadly.
