For those of you promoting the agenda of NOT supporting Harriet Miers, take a look at where you are siding.

Not in Our Name project.

They are SDS/Weatherman.

From FBI Files:

Weatherman or Weather Underground Organization, is a "revolutionary organization of communist men and women" formed by members of the Students for a Democratic Society or SDS. They were originally called the Revolutionary Youth Movement. They advocated the overthrow of our government and capitalism. They carried out a campaign of bombings, jailbreaks, and riots in 1969-1976.

The group derived their name from Bob Dylan's song lyrics from "Subterranean Homesick Blues", which were, "You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows", I use to see that quote at the bottom of their periodical, New Left Notes, when I use to work at a periodical distribution company.

Their first event, in 1969, was the "Days of Rage" in Chicago. They blew up a statue dedicated to police casualties in the 1886 Haymarket Riot. They announced at a convention that they supported Charles Manson. The rally failed to draw as many participants (300) as they had hoped. They did lead a riot through Chicago's business district, smashing windows and cars. 6 were shot and 70 arrested. The conflict went on for a few days.

1970, after the shooting by police of Black Panther Fred Hampton, the group issued a Declaration of War against the United States government, changing its name to the "weather underground organization", adopting fake IDs, and pursuing covert activities only. These initially included plans for a bombing of a US military noncommissioned officers' dance at Fort Dix. But when three Underground members died in an accidental explosion while preparing the bomb in a Greenwich Village, New York City safe house, other cells re-evaluated their plans and decided to pursue only non-lethal projects.

This group released a number of manifestos and declarations, while conducting a series of bombings. These attacked the U.S. Capitol, The Pentagon, police and prison buildings, and the rebuilt Haymarket statue again, among other targets. The group took measures to avoid any loss of life as a result of these bombings, issuing warnings to evacuate the building ahead of time via phone. They also took a $25,000 payment from a drugs group called The Brotherhood of Eternal Love to break LSD advocate Timothy Leary out of prison, transporting him to Algeria. They remained largely successful at avoiding the police and the FBI.

In the mid-to-late 1970s, the group began dissolving, as many members turned themselves in to the police, and others moved onto other armed revolutionary groups. Very few served prison sentences, since the evidence gathered against them, by the FBI's COINTELPRO program, was inadmissable in court, due to the illegal methods used to obtain it.

Famous members of the Weather Underground include Kathy Boudin, Mark Rudd, Terry Robbins, David Gilbert, and the still-married couple Bernardine Dohrn and Bill Ayers.

Many former Weathermen have re-integrated into society, without necessarily repudiating their original intent. Bill Ayers, now a Distinguished Professor of Education at the University of Illinois, said in a September 11, 2001 New York Times profile "I don't regret setting bombs. I believe we didn't do enough."

If you aren't supporting Harriet Miers, take some time to do a search of BUSHCOMMISSION.ORG. Not a site search. A search to see where info is pulled from:

Make sure if you are not on the side of supporting Miers, it isn't information that came from SDS, Not In Our Name, MoveOn.org, of the NLG.

Websites of those supporting the Miers nomination, likewise, do not follow a specific criteria.

She has support from various and diverse groups.

==

So, to rely strictly on a list of those opposing her is about as disingenuous as relying strictly on a list of those who support her, and then applying a blanket label to either camp.

"Well, I was leery, but on the fence.

But did you know she supports NUMERICAL QUOTAS? "


There is a difference between the government ordering businesses to hire less qualified people because of their skin color versus what Miers did - suggesting,as a private citizen, that businessmen voluntarily make an effort to hire 10% minorites.

When goals are ordered, they turn into quotas.

Bring back the Un-American Activities Committee! Where is Joe McCarthy now that we need him?

Thank goodness for Calpernia, who has single-handedly unearthed the diabolical plot by which Free Republic has been infiltrated, nay, dominated, by . . . Communists!

Goals are guidelines. They are not the same as the quota criteria of the EOE.

I think private business should be left to hire those they feel are best qualified to fill open positions. Sort of makes those already working at their companies at least attempt to be better/more qualified workers, in the hopes of getting advancement, than seeing the futility of doing so, knowing they're "out" at the start because they don't have the right skin color or sex.

Still awaiting your vote on the "goals" resolution.

"Who's Agenda are you Parrotting When You Do NOT Support Miers?

"Who's"?

I see you're a proud graduate of the Harriet Miers School of Spelling and Punctuation."

Roger Daltry and Pete Townsend have come out against Harriet Miers?

"If this is the best defense that the pro-Miers side can come up with then they have surely lost"
_______________________________________________

If Miers withdraws, and a strong conservative is nominated will the pro-Miers crowd support the nominee or refuse to because the anti-Miers crowd is associated with such a bad bunch of characters?

With us or with the terrorists, eh?

It's a ridiculous assertion to equate non-support of Miers with these groups.

Yes, you are misunderstanding me. I posted this for all to evaluate where they may be getting their talking points from.

Read the last paragraph of my post.

LOL. Well, judging from what's been made public, it does seem that Miers writes . . . by sense of smell ;-)
