Well, That Clears Everything Up

Posted by Hubris

Karl Rove didn't tell James Dobson how Miers would vote on a Roe v. Wade issue. Instead, according to Dobson,

What did Karl Rove say to me that I knew on Monday that I couldn’t reveal? Well, it’s what we all know now, that Harriet Miers is an Evangelical Christian, that she is from a very conservative church, which is almost universally pro-life, that she had taken on the American Bar Association on the issue of abortion and fought for a policy that would not be supportive of abortion, that she had been a member of the Texas Right to Life. In other words, there is a characterization of her that was given to me before the President had actually made this decision.

I'm glad that the conversation stayed away from how Miers would vote on specific issues, and instead focused on general judicial philosophy.

I guess we can put this whole controversy behind us.

Bill adds: I think we've got some video of Dobson's speech.

Good reasons for voting in Miers:

-Her hair is graying. Gray hair shows wisdom.
-She likes ice cream. Activists and liberals hate ice cream.
-When asked if she would make a good judge, she said "uh huh".

Hey Hubris. Welcome aboard. I'm glad to see that Bill has finally decided to spruce the place up.
