Label my opinion any way you like, but many conservative commentators have made the same point: Miers should have recused herself from consideration.

A political party should stand for something. I am much more concerned about the future of the country than placating the left or the newsmedia.

I know all the arguments in favor of Ms. Miers appointment: we get the results without the controversy. The problem is that is that this approach does nothing to educate the American people or advance the conservative cause for decades to come.

I am disappointed, and find the Administration's approach shameful.

Why should she?

So am I, but President Bush, you, nor I are going to get the "fight we've all longed for" with the current crop of spineless Republicans in the Senate.

I'd love to have a Janice Rogers Brown nominee too, but it won't happen. The problem lies in the Senate, not the White House.

I'm sick of those unappeasables like you who will flail harsh false criticism at the White House when you don't get the results you want.

Work your ass off all you want at the grassroots level, don't blame anyone else when you come up short.
