What has gone on here is inexusable. The discussion should have been entirely about her record, and not vile attacks on her character, and biting sarcasm and vitriol.
Ms Miers is an honorable woman. A whole lot of people here should be begging for forgiveness, and not reveling in some sort of 'victory.'

True.
President Bush could have sent a qualified nominee.
So Miers would have steped down if we did nothing. Ok, thanks for clearing that up.
