Ann said - "Totally unqualified", called Judge Roberts "a 'dream' candidate in light of this nomination", mentioned "cronyism" over and over

A damn shame Annie has latched on to the Lefty talking point of the day.

I think this will come down as a battle between religious and libertarian conservatives.

She sure is opinionated, ain't she?



She doesn't have a clue what kind of a Supreme Court justice Miers will make. This is not a team sport. Whether we like it or not, Bush gets to pick this nominee. What she's doing is like Monday morning quarterbacking, except on Saturday night.

Unfortunately, this criticism is mostly warranted...and the President, who could have chosen anyone he wanted and had so many potential nominees with well-established track records as strong constitutional conservatives, has no one but himself to blame

While J. Brown has served on the bench with distinction, she has served at the state level dealing with state issues until her recent elevation to the federal bench. Miers has been dealing with federal issue for much of Bush's term.

If Ann was promoting Edith Jones as more qualified, I would have to agree, but using Brown as her example, fatally flaws her argument.

Well, I've been saying it all day too. Looks like the editors at National Reivew agree with me. Yeah, looks like you're right, challenging Miers qualifications is definitely a lefty thing. /sacrasm

People Like Ann make their living off the fight and controversy. They were looking forward to a good fight and lots of face time on the news channels. They've been robbed of that and so they'll get it by opposing her.

All people like me care about is getting Conservative judges on the courts as quickly as possible to put an end to the Judaical tyranny.

Ann was on WRKO yesterday for several hours with Howie Carr and just savaged Meirs calling her nothing more than GW's legal secretary. Savaged her lack of educational pedegree... the whole 9 yards.

Some words of advice for Ann Coulter:

Big Mac, french fries, and chocolate milkshake...and super-size it!

Yeah, Ann Coulter was a closet DUmmie after all these years.

We all knew you couldn't hide forever Ann, you Communist scumbag!

There must be a bunch of semi-famous conservative pundits, like Ann, who chat amongst themselves before going forth and doing the talk shows. I just heard Jeff Brabyn this morning say the same thing as Ann, almost verbatim.

"A damn shame Annie has latched on to the Lefty talking point of the day."

The Free Republic is sounding a lot like the Democratic Underground. It's turning into a 24/7 Bush bash.

I trust my vote for Bush and I'm not going to back down because the fringe rightwing is mad. Annie and Billy kristol don't speak for me and never will. They're right wing lunatics and are no different then the fool... Mike Moore.

And what if this one talking point happens to ring true? Cronyism is the Achilles Heel of both Bush and his father. This has always been my primary complaint about them. I think that if they had to choose between our country and their friends, they'd pick the old chums every time. In their minds, the three most important qualities in a man are loyalty, loyalty and loyalty. And screw everyone who's outside their elite circle. I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but I am extremely disappointed in this choice. With Janice Rogers Brown he could have hit a grand slam: He would have pleased women, blacks and conservatives, and best of all, the liberals would have gone ballistic. I don't care how cleverly the talking heads on the Right will try to spin this, I think this is a weak move by a President who perceives himself as weakened by the fallout from Katrina.

It's not a "leftie talking point."

It's an ineluctable fact.

Simply because you choose to deny the obvious doesn't make it any less of a reality.

Maybe twenty years from now, Ms Coulter will be qualified to carry Ms. Biers briefcase.

I thought the lefty talking point from Reid and Schumer was that this was a good pick. The talking point from National Review, Mark Levin, and Limbaugh is that this is a troubling pick.

Sounds like you are the one with the lefty talking points.

Really the woman doesn't have damn brain in her head, can't write a coherent sentence and has never accomplished anything of note in her entire life.

Exactly right - Too bad Ann went to that level - It is pathetic argument - Truly pathetic -

Sadly, I think the cronyism charge is true. This clinches the debate on whether Dubya is more like Reagan or More like his father.

Looks like Ann has once again placed more importance on her EGO than on the conservative movement! She continues to break Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment. She did the same thing when she blasted Karl Rove for not winning the 2004 election by a larger margin. At times, she appears to be a cancer on the conservative movement. "Ann, can you just once keep your anorexic pie hole shut and pick some wiser battles?!"

Nothing like making ad hominem (or ad mulierem ) attacks when you have nothing of substance to employ in refuting Ann.

Ann Coulter's conservative credentials go back much farther than George W. Bush's.

Meier's qualifications for office are mainly her close personal attachment to the Bushes.

Bush has provided a candidate whose qualifications for the SCOTUS will please liberal Dems and RINOs, not conservatives or even mainstream Republicans.

Ann, as usual, is right on the money, and Bush is increasingly in the outfield with respect to his actions and their impact on his supporters.
