It looks like Harriet Miers' nomination may be in some trouble although it's doubtful. I think this is a little reverse psychology by the administration. The religious folks get all bent out of shape and the Dems think this may be someone they can support. Many on both sides suggest though that she will be a yes woman for Bush.
She will do as the administration tell her to do in any case that they have an interest in which mean a roll back in a wide variety of human rights and civil liberties. The administration has two people in place who will sway the balance of the court to the right, perhaps very far to the right and we will get a court mandate evangelical/fascist state looking remarkably like those "undemocratic" regines we're trying so hard to fight against. She'd probably beg like dog if Bush told her too. She has nothing in her history that suggests anything other than a corporate, cutthroat philosophy. There is no philosophical background, no demonstrated interest in the direction law in the country except towar her own purse. That means she'll fits well with the administration. Heck it'll take her a couple of years just to get up to speed and I'm scared when they ask her to finally write a decision. posted by Stithmeister @ 8:19 PM 1 Comments: Links to this post:
I think there will be enough Skull and Bones people floating around to keep her marching to the right tune. We can only hope maybe she gets a streak of independence but at the same time, it's like any other political machine, you have to make sure toss a bone to those how get you there.
