The sign from God would be a proven track record that a nominee is an originalist and pro-life. There is no such proof with Miers so any thinking conservative or Christian should reject the pick, demand the nomination be withdrawn and proven originalist nominated in her place.

Is that really the "only" sign from God you would accept?

Stop showing such utter political naivety! Any such nominee with that clear a 'track record' on those two issues would be DOA! Non-confirmable!!!

Can we talk reality, or do you want to live in fantasy land forever?

1) Miers is THE pick. She will not step down, and Bush will not "withdraw" her nomination. Get used to it.

2) The Dems don't have the ammo to defeat her.

3) ONLY Republicans can stop her from being confirmed. If they do that, there will be no "proven originalist,"---EVER. Do you get this? It is NOT a choice of "Miers or Janice Rogers Brown." It is Miers or Miers.

And if so-called conservatives help torpedo this nominee, you can forget getting ANYONE to the right of Chuck Schumer on the court again.
