A Born Again President

(5)

Darn. This leaves me non compos subjectivus at a time of great promise, boozewise. Guess I'll go watch my tivo of The McLaughlin Group. Standby... Ok. Got my next subject, Harriet Miers, who is Bush's most recent nominee to the Supreme Court.

I must say that I found the discussion very entertaining. My own personal take on this particular nomination is that The Prez was 'in a state of rebellion' when he made his choice. I conjecture that he was a little fed up with all the 'suggestions' (political and otherwise) which he had endured and put into official policy over the years. I think he was disenchanted. I think he selected Harriet Miers as a personal statement of independence from the right wing neocons who presume to run National Policy. I think that The Prez decided that a 'quacking duck' still had enormous power and that he chose to prove it by this nomination.

I think that The Prez became a 'born again president' with that nomination.
