Hmmm, see an eye, ear and nose specialist.

Well, then, you should read Neumayr's column (Friday, The American Spectator) on the topic.
First, N. also believes it was Card--and adds the tidbit that Laura insisted on a judge-ette; Miers was convenient.
Second, N. describes Miers' ABA agendas.
Look, this pick is largely indefensible; but GWB, on the domestic issues, is largely indefensible if one is a conservative, anyway.
It's Miers or some other rummy lefty sack--let's face it. Makes no difference, the SC is NOT going to be 6-3 strict constructionist. Not in your lifetime, not in my lifetime.
One more thing.....
I know that you fancy yourself a well-respected and honored sleuth, Miss Marple, I consider you that. But (I think that) I am less than thrilled by the innuendo of your comment. I have always seen you to be fair-minded before, but this comment of yours has hair all over it.
By the way, there was a sweet fragrance of gin-laden white raisins in the air of the deep dark oak forests of Fox Chapel.

So, instead of picking a fight with someone who already hates his guts --likely including the spineless 14 crap weasels you mentioned, he picks a fight with the people that put him into office? Huh?
And, to some degree, I do want a fight. We haven't yet had a fight with the liberals. The Bush team is like a punching bag of the left, absorbing every shocking and outrageous thing they say all in the name of a "new tone". And, yeah, they are never going to get a break from the panty-wastes in the media, but "traditional" is on thw wane. The Bush team needs to realize that the so-called "opinion makers" are still there, but they have less and less influence over messages than before.
The Bush team should have been pouring on the pressure from the day they took office. And, if you think "Well, 2000 was a tough election, blah, blah, blah". Fine. But, after the sweeping wins in 2002 and again in 2004, Bush should have his heels squarely on the liberal's throats AND it should be public. In fact, after all of the crap that was said and done in the first team to try to "play nice", 2004 was the perfect opportunity to have told the libs "enough is enough" and to have taken his messages directly to the American people and given the libs political uppercuts and armbars until these pukes tap out.
I'm not making up the illegal immigration problem. I'm not making up the out of control spending. I'm not making up that the President's team seems inept (or unwilling) to rebut the insane comments from leftist Senators and Representatives. I don't really care that the President doesn't mix it up with the ACLU; that's fine. I understand why he doesn't comment on that. However, when a United States Senator agrees with the sentiment that the President is a terrorist, then those mother effers should be publicly called to task.
W should be opening up the proverbial can of political whoop a$$ on them, even if for no other reason that to let them know that policy issues are 1 thing, but that kind of cheap personal crap won't cut. And, he doesn't have be emotional about it, he just needs to call them out.
So, you're damn right I want a fight. I'm sick and tired of watching my country being p*ssed away by leftists ideologues and the team that I spent my time, my money, and, most critically, my vote on not doing anything about it.

The couple (Lurch and Theresa) had met at an Earth Conference in Brazil, where she heard Kerry singing at Mass in Portuguese, the language of her Mozambique youth.
At the wedding, Peter Yarrow of the folk group Peter, Paul & Mary performed............. Heinz wore peach Oscar de la Renta.
