If the traitor John Mccain and his crew hadn't agreed to take the "nuclear" option off the table, would Bush have picked harriet miers? I don't think so.....
If Chuck Schumer, and Harry Reid like this pick, and we hear that Reid actually suggested her at one point, is this a pick that the party base could be happy with?
Couldn't we fillibuster this supreme court pick? Think about it, if you were a conservative in congress, and you fillibustered harriet miers, wouldn't that make you supremely popular with the base? wouldn't that give you a leg up for the party nomination in 2008? couldn't you use that to show the voters on both sides that you stand on principle and give you some kind of moral high ground?
Rick Santorum, are you listening??
Isn't this pick of Harriet Miers exactly what Alexander Hamilton warned about in The Federalist 76?
Yesterday on the Rush Limbaugh show, vice president Cheney told Rush, trust us, we know what we're doing. Isn't that what got us into the mess we're in now, with justices like souter, and O'conner?
