No, I am not equating the two, and that is exactly my point.

If people on the pro-Miers side won't disavow such comments, what am I to think? Those comments were made right here on FR, and they were certainly offensive to me.

I have explained repeatedly that I had wished for a more obvious nominee but that we do not have the votes to get one through. I have posted the names of those who I believe are in the non-conservative camp. I have made a reasonable case for why I think we have this nominee.

I will not back down on my opinion. I am not being hysterical, nor am I embellishing or making things up.

I have been called a Bushbot, Kool-aid drinker, DU type, non-conservative, and probably a host of other names I have missed.

I do not think it right that disagreement with this nomination tranlates into personal attacks by some people. I have done my best to argue this based on facts and rational suppositions, but apparently any disagreement is now "intellectually dishonest" and "stupid."

Well, you certainly made your case for why I am wrong. Dishonest and stupid, that's me. Tell me again about those rational arguments you guys are making, won't you?

There have been many, but you are doing over time in attacking the people who make them.

You want disavowment for the stupid comments a few people have made about Miers. Fine. I disavow them. Now, am I to suppose that you will be civil and deal with substance and stop making wild and insulting claims regarding sexism, elitism etc.? One can only hope.
