Conservative Revolt Against Miers Grows. “A growing chorus of
conservatives” cast skepticism on President Bush’s selection of Harriet
Miers for the Supreme Court, “expressing worry not only about
unanswered questions on her legal philosophy but also about her legal
credentials,” the New York Times
The Washington Post
calls it a “conservative uprising” and notes many former Bush allies
say the Miers pick “was a betrayal of years of struggle to move the
court to the right.”
They are completely correct about her credentials. Nominating someone with no experience as a judge is insulting to the country.
