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.

I'm showing where a lot of talking points came from.

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 ;-)
