Another litmus-tested, crony, political hack nomination, only this time to SCOTUS

with his popularity and credibility at a low ebb (and headed lower), bush now resorts to what he has been doing all along with every executive branch opening - appoint a litmus-tested, bush-loyal, political hack crony WITHOUT A RECORD... it's a lot easier to defend unqualified than a record of ideological conservatism although you can be sure that the appointment wouldn't have been made unless there was a strong underpinning of kool-aid driven ideology... tragically, this time it's for the supreme court... harriet has rove's fingerprints all over her (pardon the unfortunate visual imagery) and i'm sure his satanic majesty is laughing his ass off in the west wing even as i type this... bush has got to go... soon...

President Bush nominated White House counsel Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court on Monday, turning to a lawyer who has never been a judge to replace Sandra Day O'Connor and help reshape the nation's judiciary.
