Sorry... I agree with her. Why are they more concerned how the Democrats are going to accept the nomination than the Republicans. Piling on? I think this is free speech and she has every right to voice her opinion without being demeaned.

I don't enjoy being called a sexist or an elitist for being a conservative Republican who finds this a very weak nomination and as an Evangelical Christian am offended by the manipulation of Christian leader (Dobson) to shepherd in the fellow conservative Christians to the Meir's side. We are the ones that worked so hard to get him in office. Now we are sexists and elitists?

'Sexist' has just about lost its meaning. The same goes for 'racist.' The two terms have been misused and abused so much over the years that they've lost that sense of importance or reality. "Evangelical" is a political label, meaning what these days, I don't know--other than the fact that Harriet Miers apparently is one.

Are these people being PAID to come up with such grade school caliber charges?

Looters and extortionists too. We can also be cynical, unappeasable, far right vigilante's. Oh yeah, religious bigots ... I almost forgot that one. ;-)

The people being called elitist were George Will, Ann Coulter, Bill Kristol and other pundits, NOT the general public. This has been taken so out of context it blows my mind. For the record, the pro hearings crowd doesn't like being called "bushbots" either. The rhetoric on this topic has reached a new low IMO.

We have to add "Far-right extremists" as of last night. Check out the thread on Tucker Carlson's show last night.
This is sickening.
