Certainly there were people who were over the top on Miers, but do you really think that the objection of most people on Miers was based on some narrow agenda as opposed to our wanting a justice like Scalia or Thomas on the court for the next 30 years? Or, perhaps you consider that a narrow agenda. I know my support for Bush is/was based solely on the judges and the war on terror, since in my opinion he has been horrible on everything else. The judges were a big deal to me in his election in 2004, as they were for many conservatives.
Did you see me say anything about legitimate disagreement?
You never saw me defend her; all I wanted was an up or down vote, just like I did with Janice Rogers Brown. If she made a fool of herself, so be it.
Judges are a big deal to me, too, Rodney; but don't count on getting a good one. And don't count on the Senate GOPers to do the right thing.
You are so right -- this was all about a candidate that we knew very little about and what we did find out especially this week was not to our liking. I don't think she was thoroughly vetted either.
Do you honestly believe the judges were not a big deal for the Evangelicals in the last few elections?
