"My little crony" bows out

now i guess we wait and see what litmus-tested, far-right fringe nominee he's gonna put forward in her place... this one obviously didn't cut it with the "base..."
The Texas lawyer nominated to the US Supreme Court by President George W Bush, Harriet Miers, has withdrawn as a nominee to the court.

oh, but wait... it couldn't POSSIBLY be george's fault...
"It is clear that senators would not be satisfied until they gained access to internal documents concerning advice provided during her tenure at the White House — disclosures that would undermine a president's ability to receive candid counsel," Bush said.

you set it up precisely so you could say that, you dickhead... you only announced that you wouldn't be providing documents AFTER it was clear that miers had no support... if you were anybody else, i might be willing to grant you that face-saving move but, given it's you, hell no...
