"By the way, I sure hope all the sniping at the President now stops here at FR."
What? Are we supposed to forget that he even tried to pull this one off?
I'm glad she's out and I hope we get a better nominee, but as far as I'm concerned its not like Bush is "Ok" now.
Huh? Pulled what off? Miers selected all the nominees on Bush's short list. Miers was/is a true conservative. Granted, she lacked judicial experience, but I am certain she would have been a steadfast conservative voice on the SC.
It is rather unfortunate that many here have simply dug in their heels against Miers, not because they actually opposed her, but because they were spoinling for a good fight. Very sad.
