Why I feel Harriet Miers is the wrong choice.
George W. Bush has quite the track record of selecting people who are incompetent and/or exactly the wrong person for the job.
Cheney has directed the Neo-Con agenda for the administration. Paranoia, obstruction, and lies are the standard in this administration and Cheney leads the charge in all three.
Colin Powell proved he was willing to give up any image of personal integrity to support the war goals of this administration.
Condi Rice proved she was incompetent to manage the NSA and now is helping obstruct information coming out of the State Department.
Donald Rumsfeld cannot make sensible decisions about the war in Iraq.
John Bolton at the UN is a bad joke.
Michael Brown- horse judge, political front man.
Karen Hughes is another bad joke.
Check any of Bush's appointments and the track record is clear; America will suffer from that choice.
Without knowing anything about Harriet Miers other than the fact Bush selected her, I am confident she is a bad choice for America.

2. It sounds reasonable to me.
When I heard he'd nominated her, I knew right away there has to be something terribly wrong with her.

3. All I have to know is * wants her. That means she can't be good.

4. When I heard
that he'd nominated a WOMAN, I fell off my stool.

A neocon nominating a woman? Doesn't that violate their ten commandments, or something?

Somethin' smells like FISH....
