I do not know if it is a shame or not. Mark Levin has stated this is a lousy choice. I heard Ann yesterday on Sean Hannity's program. Stated that Miers will make Joe Biden finally look like a Constitutional scholar. Over the last several years, you can tell she - Coulter - is disillusioned of President Bush. In a way, I am also. I believe he has squandered opportunities to squash the Dems like a bug and ensure the safety of the United States. My three disappointments - (1) the border - (2) the War on Terror - we should have rolled into these countries and took control. There should be no talking about nukes in Iran because we should be in there already. I just have the sinking feeling that without a full effort, we will end up limping out of the Middle East. A shame really. - (3) these last two judge picks. Especially this last one.
And since then, she has spent her very expensive Cornell legal education dropping snappy one-liners on TV shows and making a career out of writing controversial books.
Ann Coulter's success rests on the shoulders of women like Harriet Miers, who pioneered in the legal profession when most women were not accepted in the professions. I would stack Miers' career accomplishments up against Ann Coulter's any day of the week.
And more to the point, why should her opinion be more valued than the President's? HE is the one charged with picking a nominee, not a gaggle of pundits.
