"George W. Bush is the most brilliant man I've ever met."
That's all you need to know about Harriet Miers' judging abilities.

9. How? She's an Excellent Lawyer
Truth is unimportant. If she's good enough to be White House counsel, she can say virtually anything with a straight face, no matter how ludicrous.

At least I hope that's the reason.

14. Sadly, if the stuff Thom Hartman is talking about is true...
that might not be true. Bush's speech writer describes her as a follower, and someone not fit to serve on the Supreme Court, according to the blog Hartman was reading from.

15. She Hasn't Met Many Men?
Bush keeps his women in purdah.

2. I heard that on NPR today
Edited on Mon Oct-03-05 06:18 PM by Nevernose
They were referencing an article published today. Any idea whose article or in what publication?

3. When I heard this...
I think she said it to David From, but anyways, when I heard it, all I could think was how outmatched she'll be in the brain department when she gets to the SCOTUS.

4. Wow...
Thats a VERY good reason to be on court.....or the fact she cannot testify against her own client, Nor vote in many future cases pending...or so I pray.
He looked so so drunk today, perhaps the dinner last night was off the grapefruit juice dirt.

5. So the two people that Bush nominates to the highest court are...
1. A religious fundamentalist nutjob

2. An ass-kisser

Wow. :wow: :wow: :wow:

This is why we should've elected someone else last year!

No biggie. I'm sure it happens.

8. Another Eva Braun wannabe
What is it with these women, like Miers and Condi Rice, who adore George W. Bush?

I don't see it, I just don't see it. But then, I've never been that fond of Kool-aid.

17. I actually think I understand now
bush only hires women who act like they adore him. If your a woman and want to climb the ladder you better kiss up to the shrub.

11. Oh, I've exagerrated at interviews in the past to get a job too . . .
She probably had her fingers crossed.

12. Sounds like an oral exam question at comedians' bootcamp:
You have sixty seconds to come up with as many funny punch lines as you can:

"George Bush is the most brilliant man I ever met"....

--You said that during the 90s, before Dubya was selected President.... Do you still feel the same way? (ka boom)

--How many men would you say you've met in your life? (ka boom)

-- ...

and it was misheard.

20. magic carpet ride
to the white house. She has been with him for 10 years, and he has taken her on a ride. Buttering up the boss is pretty standard stuff. Married to her work and he made her work exciting.
