I hope she is in the Scalia and Thomas mold. Maybe Dubya has fooled us all again. However, it bothers me that Senator Harry Reid and other DemoRats said that HM is one of only two on Bush's short list that would not have been filibustered. That sounds like he let the DemoRats and RINOS make his pick. I hope my gut feeling on this is wrong. I still can not figure out why he did not nominate Janice Rogers Brown?

It doesn't bother me .. let's see of they really mean it

Or if they are playing a game as not to look like they are blocking this nomination

I look forward to Harry and Chuckie singing glowing responses about Miers ... as NARL and the NOW Gals are out waiting in the hall for them

If she turns out exactly as he has described and presented then he hasn't "fooled" you. You simply don't believe him.

Simple - he's afraid of a fight.

That's why he hasn't vetoed a single bill. Not one.

W threatened to veto a spending bill over a certain dollar amount, but Congress sent him one anyway. What did he do? He buckled and signed it. W said McCain-Feingold was un-Constitutional, but when it was passed and sent to his desk - guess what? He caved and signed it. For some reason, he's deathly afraid of a fight with Democrats in Congress.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I just can't understand how the President can fight so hard to do the right thing overseas, whatever the consquences, and be so afraid to do the right thing here at home.
