Inadequate, Insufficient and Insulting
Those are the
words used by Arlen Specter to describe Harriet Miers' responses to the Senate Judiciary Committee's questionnaire, as both GOP and Democratic leaders asked her to rewrite some of her answers.
Aren't they also words that could be used to describe the entirety of this Supreme Court nomination?
If Miers really goes through with these confirmation hearings, scheduled to start November 7th, I will be Tivo-ing them religiously. It'll be like watching a car crash in which the only person who gets hurt is an empty-headed, ill-equipped and unprepared judicial nominee.
Oh, right, and the president. And, in some way, probably the country.
Please, President Bush...do us all a favor. Put Harriet Miers out of her (and our) misery. Withdraw this nomination.
