• I bet some of you will gasp and scratch your eyes to see if you're
  actually reading this but, if the Senate really is a working body, then
  they should reject Harriet Miers.

  Okay, I'll wait for all of you to catch your breath.  Oh no,
  Motoki, a Republican just said something Republicans shouldn't
  say.  AHHHH!

  No, really.

  I feel that there are many problems with Bush's new nomination of Miers
  to the Supreme Court.  And I don't know why every Republican in
  Congress hasn't said anything in opposition to our President because
  there's a lot you can be opposed to with her nomination.

  First, she's never been a judge.  Sure she's been a lawyer, but
  she's been protected from other rabid lawyers out there by a fortress
  known as the White House.  I bet you she can pretty much say what
  she wants to say and she can get away with it.  And think of all
  the judges out there that have worked so hard and have been doing their
  utmost to stand by our great Constitution.  They got jipped
  man.  By upholding the Constitution to the best of their ability,
  they get repaid by someone else (and someone from Bush's inner circle
  of all people) being nominated to the Court.  Come on guys, then
  that's like it'd be better for us to just kiss ass and get a high
  paying job than really working for it.  Disappointing, really.

  Second, what's with her and her affiliation with a conservative
  Christian church?  I don't want a super conservative religious
  person on the Supreme Court.  I want Court decisions based on the
  unbiased opinions of judges based solely on legal precdent and
  analysis.  I don't want the judicial system being tainted by
  religious ideas and teachings.  Law surely has its religious roots
  but right now, in our country, it shouldn't choose a religion to base
  their decision on.  If that were to happen, we'll be no better
  than theocracies like in Iran.

  Other reasons are less based on logic but I'm sure you'd all agree.

  Harriet Miers is ugly.  She's old but she still uses too much makeup like a teenager girl would.

  Do you really want to see some woman that has makeup she should have
  used 50 years ago (and definitely not now) on the bench of our highest
  court?  I think not.
