Is is any surprise if MSM doesn't get the difference between correcting an error your side has made versus keeping the other side from exercising their constitutional perogotives?
Just a few short weeks ago, librals were criticizing Republicans for rubber stamping any choice the president put up.
They will criticize no matter what.
There is no difference...what was done will harm the conservative cause. When Dems filibuster the next nominee, they will say this person is not the best person for the job and point to conservatives treatment of Miers. President Bush had the right to choose...those who opposed the nomination are no better than activist Democrats.
The so called conservative base gave this woman no chance what so ever and it wasn't pretty and damn right it compares to what we were complaining about the liberals doing to our candidates.
I got a new picture of the most conservative people in this situation, and it wasn't pretty.
No kidding. The MSM revels in its hypocrisy--they'd be supporting the left in a Senate-rules-based-procedural-game that subverts the Constitution to prevent the appointment process from moving forward, but God forbid that conservatives actually exercise their constitutional right to free speech (all we did, btw) and the Prez pulls the plug as is HIS constitutional prerogative.
