Don’t forget Harriet Miers. We had to fight for those appointments, even against President Bush’s judgment.
I had forgotten and I am grateful for the reminder. My greater point is, by voting 3rd party we get someone like Obama to appoint someone like Sotomayor.
We can either elect Republican presidents and have a chance to keep the court’s conservative edge or we can protest, vote 3rd party, allow communists in as president and get more people like Ginsburg and Sotomayor.
The answer seems very simple to me.
“Don’t forget Harriet Miers. We had to fight for those appointments, even against President Bush’s judgment.”
We remember.
