I've yet to be convinced that she can stand up to the pressures on SCOTUS.

Right a political running for the Dallas City Council who tells a Gay activist group that she would NOT support efforts to repeal the Texas Sodomy Law is REALLY going "buckle" under the pressure. A person who, unlike ANY "hero" of the Conservative Legal Establishment, has put in writing her clear cut support for the 2nd Amendment as a personal Right is going to be a "weak" choice" A devote Christian secure and active in her faith despite all the derision that probably causes among her glib Establishment co workers is REALLY going be a weak kneed as say...Oh any of the 90 Senators who voted this week for the Terrorist Protection amendment.

Sorry, you are still grasping at straws to rationalize the position you WANT to adopt Marcus.

A person who, unlike ANY "hero" of the Conservative Legal Establishment, has put in writing her clear cut support for the 2nd Amendment as a personal Right

Robert Bork is one such "hero," and check out some his his words on the matter:

"The Second Amendment was designed to allow states to defend themselves against a possibly tyrannical national government. Now that the federal government has stealth bombers and nuclear weapons, it is hard to imagine what people would need to keep in the garage to serve that purpose.'' - R. Bork

Ole Borkie got what he deserved.

Meanwhile, the watchdog group Accuracy in Media says some members of the conservative media are distorting portions of Harriett Mier's record. AIM says reports that the Supreme Court nominee is on record supporting the establishment of the International Criminal Court and homosexual adoptions are erroneous.

"There's no evidence for the charge," says AIM's Cliff Kincaid, adding that the "documents" allegedly supporting the reports have been "seriously distorted by WorldNetDaily and other outlets."

AIM also says a Chicago Sun-Times columnist is guilty of perpetuating the inaccurate reports. The columnist, Robert Novak, wrote that Miers chaired a panel the "recommended legalization of gay adoption and establishment of an International Criminal Court." But Kincaid says Miers was chair of a panel that simply passed along recommendations from various entities in the American Bar Association for consideration by members of the ABA.

AIM says "there's no evidence that [Miers] put her personal stamp of approval on those controversial positions."

...has put in writing her clear cut support for the 2nd Amendment as a personal Right...?

Ms. Miers has never said this.

She's so 'utterly ordinary' that she actually believes in concepts like right to life and the 2nd amendment. Yep. Sounds like a real dufus to me /sarc.
