He Picked John Roberts and See How That Turned Out
If I hear one more person try to defend the Harriot Miers nomination by saying "Trust Bush, he picked John Roberts and see how that turned out" I will scream. John Roberts is still a complete unknown. Quit acting like he now has a long record proving his credentials. Hugh Hewitt is the worst about this but others have pushed it as well.
Bush re-nominated two Clinton judges in a political calculation and signed the McCain-Feingold Campaign finance bill limiting free speech. He sacrificed principle long ago on constitutional issues.
In the end things may end up just fine but please don't insult my intelligence.
