Stop Miers Now!
We, the undersigned, believe that the single most important job of the United States Senate is to protect and defend the Constitution. The appointment of Harriet Miers, an unqualified political crony... continue reading »
"Miers should show put her slavish loyalty to Mr. Bush into practice and back out of the nomination now! She would look heroic and can be farmed out to an appeals court. See Peggy Noonan's and John Fund's 10/13 Articles."
"say no to Miers"
"We have a President to ran as Ronald Reagan but governs as Christie Whitman. Conservatives better wake up to the fraud. There is going to be a big price to pay in the midterm elections for massive spending and deficits, failure to defend our borders and"
"Ms. Miers may be a very nice lady and an excellent lawyer, but others are FAR MORE qualified for the Supreme Court, who have proven conservative judicial records."
"I am a loyal W supporter, but this nomination is, simply, NUTS ! Only ORIGINALISTS should be nominated to SCOTUS and Federal Appeals posts !"
"She is grossly unqualified to ever in any court. Allowing her on the bench would set the country back for decades."
"the pres has done some very questionable things,however,this choice is indefencesible.it makes republicans look incapable of resonsible leadership."
"We were assured justices in the mold of Justice Thomas and Justice Scalia. There is zero evidence that Ms. Miers fits this mold. Please withdraw this nomination."
"This is the single biggest dissappointment of the Bush Presidency. I have lost an incredible amount of respect for the President due to this considerably poor choice for the nations highest court. This choice has left me feeling that the President has aba"
"Her political record is appalling. The last thing we need is another Sandra Day O'Connor. This woman has supported severely left-wing politicians and academics. Disgusting move on Bush's part. Perhaps it's genetic --akin to Dad's "read my lips" bet"
"Message to Pres. Bush... just because the seat being vacated is that of a woman doesn't mean you have to fill it with another woman. In this case an unqualified one. Shame on you."
"This nominee *cannot* be confirmed! Why did you lie to us Mr. President?"
"Ms. Miers is not qualified by either professional legal or political experience to be a Justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. I urge you to vote against this unqualified friend of President Bush."
"I have no idea who Harriet Miers is. I only know who she is not. She is not someone with a clear perspective and a past of unbiased thinking that are the qualifications of any jurist, let alone an associate justice of the Supreme Court."
"Miers is not fit to shine Justice Scalia'a shoes. Mr. President, please select a qualified conservative."
"I plead with you to stop the nomination of Harriet Miers. Her lack of a coherent worldview will make her a judicial tyrant deciding cases based on whim and whimsey. If you meant the oath you took upon taking office, you must oppose Harriet Miers for SCO"
"I've got nothing bad to say about her personally, but I think there are better, more conservative choices out there. It's time to change the dynamic on that court once and for all. Why roll the dice (again!) on an unknown. "
"I could support the nomination of UTexas Law School Professor Lino Graglia, or of Janice Rogers Brown."
