The Tide Turns

Miers overkill? Have conservatives become what they despise? Plus more, including nuke power and losing it at the movies.

(Page 2 of 14)

At the same time, Janice Rogers Brown, Priscilla Owens, et al. have stood out in front and worked to apply the law as it is written. They have suffered stinging rebukes for practicing judicial restraint. They are upstanding, elected and re-elected Conservative judges who deserve THE promotion of all time -- nomination to the Supreme Court.

p>Harriet Miers may be a fine Christian and a wonderful woman, but she has not earned this elevation. It has nothing to do with her gender. br> -- Judy Beumler br> Louisville, Kentucky /p>

I have a friend that often sees folks getting excited over nothing and she instructs them in this manner: "Don't get your knickers in a twist!" She lets them know that things have a way of getting sorted out. I feel that way about folks fidgeting over Harriet Miers. I want to tell them to not let their knickers get in a twist. This will sort out. Let the hearings begin and either Ms. Miers will, as I suspect, be able to handle the mountains of questions about her positions, or she won't. I suspect the lady has both a backbone of steel and is firmly fixed in her ideas. After all, she didn't get to where she is floating on the ever-changing opinions of others.

p>So, y'all calm down and don't get your knickers in a twist, it will all sort out in the end! br> -- Beverly Gunn br> East Texas Rancher /p> p> Just read your article as I am waiting for the printer to complete a document and then I am heading for home. First, thanks for your comments, particularly to wait for the smoke to clear before making a decision, except as you point out, it hasn't. I will read this again in the morning; the main purpose tonight was to note the connection between your first paragraph -- the Philippine spy, and the last paragraph, sending the column to the White House in a Manila envelope. Nice! br> -- Mark Davis
