seems ridiculous...Card wants Miers for the SCOTUS to get rid of her???
That just seems crazy and stupid all rolled into one. Seems to me if they wanted to get rid of her they could have easily found a nice little job elsewhere for her.
I am starting to discount everything that Frum says.
Ppl do sometimes promote someone just to get rid of them. It's not unheard of.
I'm with you. Apparently, the thought process went like this: "You are incompetent. I can't trust you to handle anything intelligently. There's only one thing to do -- I'm going to get you a lifetime appointmen to the Supreme Court of the United States! Ha! That will teach you to cross me! BWWWWAAAAHHHHHAAAAAA!"
I ain't buying what Frum is selling.
Evidently Frum is upset because he was only shown the door, and not offered a seat on the Supreme Court.
Bush loves her and would not allow her to be demoted or fired. How is that not perfectly reasonable. Bush is big time into loyalty and obedience uber alles. Miers would stand on her head and gargle peanut butter if Bush asked her. So, Bush protects her. So, Card comes up with a way to get what he wants without Bush having to feel like a best friend is getting hurt.
