My 'family' does not destroy people with false charges.

My 'family' does not condemn a person without a trial.

My 'family' believes in the Constitution.

THIS is not my family, Jeff. At least not the people who have participated in this lynching.

It doesn't even matter whether or not the woman was qualified. She was denied her rights.

My 'family' would never do such a despicable thing.

She wasn't denied a thing. Not a thing. She had her hearings coming up. SHE pulled the nomination. She has 51% of the stock, and told the shareholders she didn't want to go through with it. She could easily have ignored this "tiny powerless minority" and gone ahead with her nomination. She chose not to. Even she had to know she wasn't qualified.

Are you then saying that if you see someone about to step off the curb into traffic who is going to be hit by a car, we should all stand by and watch rather than short circuit "the process"? Do we not have an obligation to speak up when someone is running headlong at a brick wall? When they are making a huge mistake? Or would that then be denying them their right to get hit by a car?

I'll ask again. Are we a tiny, powerless minority, or did we deny her her "right"? Which is it?

She was denied her rights.

What rights was she deprived of? If she had remained the nominee then she would have received a hearing and then an up/down vote. She and the president are the ones that withdrew the nomination.

Also, what false charges were levied against her? Also, why do you think that those opposed to the Miers nomination don't follow the constitution?
