Harriet Miers
My sister is 65, never been married, and definitely not a lesbian.
Beam me up Scotty.
I don't watch any of them. And I think that Laura's jokes and attending a homo marriage do support immoral principles.
I suppose your narrow-minded view of this has Pope Benedict XVI as a raving homosexual.
You have an ignorant, ill-informed, bigoted attitude.
Lame pick by a lame president who is part of an increasingly lame political party....Libertarian or Constitution Party in '08
"So you support OPEN BORDERS and ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION??
you support Giant GOV prescription plans??
you support the FED gov in Education??\
you support OUT OF BALANCE FEDERAL BUDGET??
you support not keeping a promise to appoint judges who we KNOW are conservative??"
I think the most important thing we conservatives wanted from Bush was honoring his pledge to appoint strict constructionists. First we get a stealth candidate who NO ONE can be sure of, now we get a Bush crony. As fat as I'm concerned Bush should change his name to George Wus. What a weak, smarmy, backstabbing, BS pick this was. And the Idiot doesnt even have the excuse about worrying about getting re-elected. Bush is stuck on STUPID.
So why did Bush ask Harvie Wilkinson if he exercised. Wilkinson, I Believe is 59-- Bush's questions of him suggested that he was concerned about his nominees longevity. Does Harriet Miers look like someone who'll be around a long time-- does she look in shape or youthful?
Face it, it was a crap pick that apparently violates many of Bush's stated criteria.
Which accounts?
You are spot on when you point this out on comments made by more than a few Freepers.
The Signal/Noise ratio is way to high to have a reasonable discussion on this thread as of present, I'm afraid...
It's almost lunch time here. Please don't mention meatloaf! : )
Conservative Group Opposes 'Bush Packing' Appointment of Miers

Contact: Jesse Binnall of the Public Advocate
FALLS CHURCH, Va., Oct. 3 /Christian Wire Service/ -- Public Advocate President Eugene Delgaudio has issued the following statement following the appointment of Harriet Miers to serve on the Supreme Court.
"The President's nomination of Miers is a betrayal of the conservative, pro-family voters whose support put Bush in the White House in both the 2000 and 2004 elections and who were promised Supreme Court appointments in the mold of Thomas and Scalia. Instead we were given 'stealth nominees,' who have never ruled on controversial issues, more in the mold of the disastrous choice of David Souter by this President's father.
"When there are so many proven judges in the mix, it is unacceptable this President has appointed a political crony with no conservative credentials. This attempt at 'Bush Packing' the Supreme Court must not be allowed to pass the Senate and we will forcefully oppose this nomination."

My thoughts exactly...
So apparently are the advocates of "contemporary moral standards," which used to be known as immorality and indecency.
I hope I'm wrong
I don't think I am.
"You should have been here the day it was announced that Cheney was the VP pick; believe it or not, it was worse than this."
I was a lurker at that time, and I couldn't believe the BS that was posted about Cheney by the Donner Party Rinos pretending to be the true conservatives.
BINGO!
Yeah, this lady is a REAL Conservative...she was donating RIGHT BEFORE ELECTION DAY to the DNC!!!
Given Dukakis' positions (Pro-abortion, anti-second ammendment)...does ANYONE think that she was donating to someone she was philosophically OPPOSED to?!
And when the Political winds changed in Texas...she weathervaned right along with them (Good sound principles there...how does GWB justify her work AGAINST his father and the (R)'s?) and in all likelyhood kept her previous "Principles" in tact, because the (R)'s decided to go with a "Big Tent" strategy...which just allowed the enemy to work from within to destroy the Base!
But I'm sure that the BushBot Kool-Aid crowd will be along soon to pooh-pooh this info, and pass out warm glasses of Pi$$ and tell us it's Republican Strategerey Lemonaide!
Uh, it would be a bit of a problem if Benedict was married with children. Try again with a better analogy.
LOL. Too funny. Just imagine you have this massive national problem. Your only choice is picking one of two people to solve it.
#1 is basically unknown, and inexperienced.
#2 has a long proven track record of no-nonsense, top shelf leadership, problem solver etc.
Who would you pick to do the job?
