Sister Harriets' Secret HIDDEN TESTIMONY...Freeps Heads EXPLODE!
Edited on Thu Oct-13-05 04:12 PM by Skinner
HIDDEN TESTIMONY REIGNITES MIERS FIRES

**Exclusive Details**

The DRUDGE REPORT has obtained a copy of sworn testimony given by Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers in 1990 in which she said that she “wouldn’t belong to the Federalist Society” – a conservative and libertarian lawyers’ organization – because it was “politically charged.”

But Bush's Supreme Court nominee did not include in that catagory the NAACP and other liberal groups, the transcript reveals!

Word of the testimony circulated late last week, roiling conservatives and setting off a scramble among lawyers to obtain the actual testimony. Sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT that conservatives demanded that the White House and its allies release copies of the testimony, but their demands were ignored.

A source close to the Bush administration says, "the process requires the White House to prepare documents to turn over to the Senate Judiciary Committee and only after the committee has had the courtesy of receiving them are such docs made public."

2. But the Pro Harriet spinners will go
"We care about what Harriet thinks NOW - not what she said 15 years ago". It's all spin.

5. for someone guaranteed NEVER to change.
I have a pet rock which never changes. Should it sit on the Supreme Court? Maybe, instead of Clair or Tony.

Why NOT hope for a 100 - 0 vote against?

7. I don't think this matters. She was a Dem back then.
Same period of time when she donated to Gore. Story is that she found Jesus since then, and of course found Shrub too!

14. I'm afraid NOT to have her confirmed
Look---do you trust ANYTHING that fuckhead nominates?? At least with her there's a remote chance that she is just an ass-kissing, brown nose (as Bagalia called her)to get up the 'ladder' and will not pan out the way the lunatic fringe wants. But, god, if she goes down the tubes, do you want to deal with whatever human shit he will come up with next?? You know that whomever he picks will eventually get on. There will still be a Dem here or there that will cave in. The Repukes outvote us, etc. So you can go to the bank that even if we go ape shit over some nominee, that nominee is going to make the Supremes. I, for one, don't want to see what he would come up with next because I'll guarantee you, that that one will be such an outright winger facists that Hitler would have no problem identifying with her/him!!!

16. I know. I've posted the same thing several times in the past.
I'm thinking Janice Rogers Brown! I watched her hearings when she was confirmed to the Fed court. She didn't even sound intelligent!

17. I agree. It could have been much, much worse.
And frankly, I don't see how whatever character flaw it is that motivates her sophomoric gushing, could be as dangerous as a flaming federalist would be.
