Heh heh No paper trail for the Leftists to lick their chops over - just like Roberts!

[Fido969]

Oh, cripes, isn't this the same press release he sent out when Roberts was nominated?

[frogjerk]

Doesn't she have an extensive paper trail from her work in the law firm?

[TheCornerOffice]

"While her resume lists impressive qualifications as a practicing attorney, it simply does not give the Senate -- or the public -- sufficient information to determine her qualifications to be a Supreme Court Justice and her commitment to core constitutional values."

Senator Kennedy,

Ask her. That's what the hearings are for. Duh!

[RexBeach]

"When I returned, Mary Jo and the car were gone!"

Naturally, however, Sen. Kennedy had a superb public record when he first ran for the Senate in 1961. The only record he had was that he was Joe Kennedy's baby boy.

Just think of all of the wonderful things Sen. Kennedy has done for MA. Gee. Why do they keep re-electing this gasbag?

Nertz.

No paper trail for the Leftists to lick their chops over

I don't know, this seems to be the latest rallying cry among the left... let us root through your underwear and we'll see... only SEE, mind you, about giving you what you want. OTOH, we'll use anything we find on any topic to smear you from head to toe.

I was a bit skeptical about Roberts and he brought me around to his side with the hearings.

I am more of a skeptic with Ms. Miers. Maybe, just maybe, I will feel better about this after a bit.

[I'm ALL Right!]

I think Bush nominated her knowing the RATS were determined to cause a big stink about anyone he nominated. He knew they intend to vote that nominee down, no matter who it is, just to show their base they are fighting BUSH and flexing their muscle. IMO, Bush has someone else in the wings...just waiting until Harriet is voted down. After they have refused to approve one nominee, the RATS will be unable to make such a huge issue again...as it will look like they are just being difficult to be difficult. Just my opinion.

[TheForceOfOne]

Slur, drool, Bush blah blah, stumble stumble, insult, stumble, office door, slam, thump, snore.

[MSSC6644]

Did Teddy ever pass the bar? (I had to laugh after I wrote that question, but I wasn't referring to drinking. Honest.)

[marshmallow]

As far as we know at this point, Ms. Miers does not have a public record of writings or speeches that would give the Senators and the American people an insight into the kind of justice she would be.

The obligatory and superficial after-thought about the wishes of the "American people". He does this about two or three times throughout the piece. See? I'm just doing what the American people want.

Kennedy voted against Roberts so it's pretty much a foregone conclusion as to which way he's going to vote here.

Still, I blame the citizens of New England. Kennedy would be nothing more than a rich, local drunk if the voters of that part of the country didn't insist on sending him and his offspring to Washington to urinate on the Constitution every election cycle.

Kennedy Statement On Nomination Of Harriet Miers to Supreme Court

Two words Senator Kennedy...Pound Sand

[Natural Law]

W should give the documents as soon as Teddy comes clean on Chapaquitic. (Don't hold your breath would be too cruel a pun)

[sono]

In other words, The Senior Senator from Chappaquiddick votes "Nay."

[OrioleFan]

The Swimmer doesn't want anyone on the court who wouldn't consider taking his murder case in the death of Mary Jo - pro bono.

"Ditto"
