I didn't have a problem with her going after the scotus nominees. She wanted conservative appointments. They jury is still out, but I'm still hopeful Roberts is going to be good, though I have a feeling he's going to become the new swing vote.

And this... did you support Myers? Did you think she was an appropriate nomination? Did you really want to be dragged through the mud during confirmation hearings and then face the President's own party rejecting her? Puhleaze. She had to be one of the weakest nominees in history.

I wouldn't have had a problem with her legitimately criticizing the SCOTUS nominees; I DID have a problem with her calling Roberts a "closet Souter" and with her treating Harriet Myers basically like the Left treats Paula Jones, Linda Tripp, Juanita Broderick, Katherine Harris, and Ann Coulter. Even if you disagreed with the choice to nominate them, they didn't deserve to be treated like pond scum because they aren't. Actual pond scum, like for example the Jersey Girls or Murtha, is a different matter.
