NPR swoons over Miers...

..Well, now, we can tell NPR has been taken over by the bu$hco propaganda machinery, can't we?

"She previously served as Mr. Bush's personal lawyer in Texas, took on the thankless job of cleaning up the Texas Lottery when Mr. Bush was governor there."

Poor, poor Ms. Miers...

HA!

1. Yeah, I was listening to that with my gorge rising

Talk about a hard sell...going on, and on, and on, as if her appointment is a done deal. I guess news is pretty ephemeral, isn't it?

2. No -- I've listened to them ever since the announcement

This is not an accurate characterization. Nina T. is actually very skeptical and lets it be known.

6. I wouldn't call it thankless

seeing how she was rewarded with multiple other higher paying jobs, and now a permanent one.
