p> UP WITH TED br> Re: R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr.'s After Harriet -- One Choice, Really : /p> p>I can only pray the Bush administration is listening to you. I've been hoping Ted Olson would be a Supreme Court nominee for at least the last four years. I was always disappointed his name never appeared on any of the short lists. Let's keep our fingers crossed (again). br> -- Paul /p> p> I have been reading your wonderful publication since I first noticed the huge magazine and purchased it at a downtown Kansas City bookstore during a lunch break back in 1990. While I have been agitated by the downsizing of the magazine and bewildered during the relatively short period when the magazine featured the favorite subjects of that futuristic gentleman, whose name I cannot now remember, I do not think I have ever disagreed with anything written by Mr. Tyrrell. I have freely taken of his kool-aid. However, his musings concerning the Miers nomination have seemed designed to ingratiate himself with the White House. Maybe that is unfair to Mr. Tyrrell, but not more unjust than his suggestion that those of us who care very deeply about the Supreme Court are opposing the nomination simply because we have nothing better to do. With all due respect to Mr. Tyrrell, his observations concerning the nomination have been boring and rather disappointing. br> -- Dave Mills br> Rolla, Missouri /p>
