Memo To The Children of the "Reformation":

You thought you knew, but you didn't know.

Read and learn. This Miers mess is just another of the many reasons why I don't trust you any farther than I can throw you.

Weren't you folks screeching how Miers was a staunch foe of the Roe v. Wade abomination? And just a couple of days ago, too! When will you "conservative" protestants get it through your poor addled brains: Only The True Church can help a man (or woman) stand up to the wickedness and snares of the Devil.

You should be down on your knees thanking God this poor, confused woman won't be given a handhold on the reins of power! And while you are at it, ask Him to send the Supreme Court someone dependable, namely a faithful Catholic with a paper trail! (Do the names Scalia and Thomas ring a bell?)

Swallow your pride and admit I am typing the truth.


Now that Harriet Miers has withdrawn, we have to learn the lesson of the last three and a half weeks. In the text of a 1993 speech she delivered to a Dallas women's group, Harriet Miers sounded more like John Edwards than John Roberts: "We undeniable [sic] still do have a justice system that does not provide justice for all as provided by the Pledge of Allegiance. One justice for rich, one justice for poor. One justice sometimes for minorities, one for whites." On judicial activism, she punts, writing: "When you hear Courts blamed for judicial activism or intrusion where they don't belong...stop and [sic] examine what the elected leadership has done to address the issue at hand...." This speech lacks a clear logic, reasoning, or attention to basic grammar and punctuation. We can't believe that President Bush never read this speech. This speech is not anything that could ever be written by a judicial conservative with a firm grasp of the principle of judicial restraint. (Thanks to Laura Ingraham for the heads up and for her tireless efforts to get the truth out.)
