The Conservative Up-Roar

By on 10.6.05 @ 1:50PM

Now that the Conservative Up-Roar has resounded for the better part of four days let us get back to the other part of politics. The first part was for us conservatives to let the President know we are here. The second part is to spread throughout the polity. Harriet Miers in the judiciary will be markedly better than Ruth Bader Ginsberg -- and by a lot. During every conservative presidency there is a dust up between 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and the conservative movement. This was a good one, but beyond trusting the President I trust Ms. Miers' present record and values to be at least an acceptable justice. Carry on.
