I Feel Sorry For Harriet Miers... I Pray The Indictments Come (Read Why)

I certainly wouldn't have appointed her to the Supreme Court but she didn't do anything to deserve the public humiliation heaped on her by the conservatives...


She was a dutiful assistant to Bush and now Bush* throws her under the train and has her fall on her sword...


I hope the indictments come and puts the curtains on this corrupt and feckless administration....



This collection of yahoos, popinjays, mountebanks, and philistines make Ulysses Grant's administration look competent in comparison...And at least Ulysses Grant won a just war and his heart was in the right place.....


If there is a God the 2006 and 2008 election will cast the Bush administration, the Republican party, and the detritus that follows them on to the junk heap of history...

Any person who claims that Chimpy is the most the brilliant man she has ever met is surely only worthy of our contempt.

Yeah, she was a toady.... That's pathetic regardless of who the target of their flattery is but I feel sorry for folks whose insecurity leads them to that behavior...


The culprit here is Bush* not Harriet Miers...

Unless Harriet disappoints conservatives again by not generating enough interest to overwelm Fitzmas.

I think Bush* is creating the Perfect Storm...

Plus, if she went to the Supreme Court she wouldn't get to spend every day with the coolest President in the world. I'm sure she's much happier staying where she is.

Grant was a lovable rogue....



He didn't have a Rove and there was no artifice about the man...



The attire he wore to Appomattox spoke volumes about him...

sorry for her?

She is a sycophant and a total pro-Bushie. If she were on SCOTUS she would legislate in a way that would screw you over until you were a white Christian hetero male.

no need for pity there.

tells a lot about them, I think. Theirs is not a "big tent", that's for sure. Everyone in lock step, no dissent from certain points at all.

I find it interesting that former Sen. John Danforth (R-MO), himself an Episcopal priest, recently said that he felt the role of evangelicals (his term) in the Bush Administration was too much, bordering on being wrong. I'm waiting for him to be drummed out of the party.

She knew she lacked the qualifications. She set herself up for the fall. Of course, then again, since she thinks W is the most brilliant man on the planet she may be too stupid to realize her own shortcomings.

If she thought Bush* was the most brilliant man in the world then obviously she thought his nomination of her was brilliant...



Look, she's not qualified... She should have never been nominated....


But Bush* shouldn't have put her out there for public ridicule and how do the conservatives and neoconservatives who blundered into the most needlessly destructive war in the history of the republic have the standing to criticize any body's competence....


It would be akin to taking an ethics course from Ken Lay...

She's totally unqualified. Again, she could have refused, and again, since she's so enamored of W he probably convinced her of her qualifications. But could she really be that clueless? I don't know.

The conservative & neocons are so devoid of any introspection that they really can't see the hypocrisy underlying their every action. Even when it's pointed out to them, as we're seeing with their criticism of the Plame investigation, they refuse to admit to their self-deceit. It's as if they have some sort of mental aberration where anytime they hear the truth their fingers go in their ears and they sing la-la-la, la-la-la.

cronyism-only-based assignments have come to an end? What was exposed so far, is that she screwed taxpayers for personal profit on her land deal, she clearly destroyed some guy at the lottery in order to give millions of $ to a Bush crony who would protect his little "National Guard problem," and she apparently screwed all of us by negligently allowing Bush to ignore the "Bin Laden determined to strike the US" daily briefing.

So, feel sorry for her? THat's like feeling sorry for Brownie after his incompetence and disdain for all the drowing black and old people initated one of our county's most horrific tragedies. She should be in prison along with the rest of this corrupt and malignant cabal.

Hopefully Fitz has everything sewn up and slaps them down and SOON!

who would say that Bush is the most brilliant man she's ever met. She lay down with dogs, she deserves what she gets.

I'm a bleeding heart liberal because I feel sorry for them...



I was in middle management where I could hire and fire people... I would have never have hired an obviously unqualified person only to fire them and make them look and feel like a total ass...

pharisee.

It's like a... y'know a... real DIRTY person. :silly:
