If true, she at least looks a little better.
Planned parenthood would oppose ANY Bush nominee.
But I'm not excited about his choice.
But... but she's a female Souter! Bush has betrayed us! How can this be?!
They would oppose a ham sandwich.
FYI
Well, at least she is opposed by all the right people.
Gasp!!! Imagine That! The baby grinders are opposed to a Bush nominee! What are the odds if that?!?
ping!
The Rats have already started nibbling and it is not on cheese.
But, but not one hour ago I was told by really reliable sources (who will never vote for a republican again) here on Freeperville that she was so pro-abort she not only gave to Al Gore she did her own back alley abortions before Roe V Wade.
Whats up?
"AP, 2/2/1992, on whether as President she would ask a potential nominee how he or she would rule on abortion:
Nominees are clearly prohibited from making such a commitment and presidents are prohibited from asking for it, said Harriet Miers, a Dallas lawyer and president-elect of the State Bar of Texas.
In 1993, after the ABA had voted to adopt a pro-choice stance, the State Bar of Texas, under Miers leadership, fought to have the issue put to a vote of the full ABA membership. She said:
If we were going to take a position on this divisive issue, the members should have been able to vote.
In favor of democracy on the issue of abortion? Lets hope she carries that through."

If she really did that it makes me feel a little bit better about her.
It is still a bit disappointing anyway...it isn't exactly a nomination to get excited about.
I like her, I like her not, I like her.....
Ya know, maybe someone was right on the other thread when they suggested that he picked her expecting, maybe, that she would not get in, then he could nominate someone better who the Rats couldn't fight and he really wanted. Just speculation but time will tell. It IS interesting to watch who's opposing her though. It tells a lot.
She wanted to change the pro-abortion activist position to one of neutrality. That's pretty weak ground for even a pro-abortion group to oppose her.
One thing we know is that they would oppose her no matter what her views were, simply because she was nominated by Bush.
Planned Parenthood opposed a Republican nominee? Colour me surprised.
