Hopefully, Miers' Departure Will Shine A Light...

On the Republican party's complete indifference to how they were elected to Congress and the White House, and will reveal to them the wishes of the Little Guys - us, the voting public.

The voting public is largely conservative, with strong (small "l") libertarian leanings. I know this is a broadly sweeping statement. I believe that the public re-elected George W. Bush in a landslide because we are naive enough to believe that our values should be reflected in the makeup of the government.  They knew that Bush was, at best, a wishy-washy "Conservative," but that since our choice has been either an ultra elite-Leftist Statist like Kerry, or an ultra-elite Left-Leaning, "tough on Terrorism," Son-of-a-(Jorge) Boosh, we'd choose the lesser of two evils. I also suspect that most of the voters figured out, prior to pulling the lever on either guy, that they'd have to battle their respective candidate for the soul of the party in just such a fashion as the Conservatives just battled the RepubliSpendocrats machine that nominated such a zero for this most important of positions.

Having chosen the lesser of two evils, I feel it is my duty to reduce the amount of damage that the idiot I voted for would do to my nation in the next three years, and forcing him to justify his Supreme Court pick to me is a key ingredient in the success of that pick in his or her position.

I am hoping to see a nominee that will be a good counter to the persistently Leftist rulings of Darth Bader Ginsburg, probably the most predictable Justice to ever sit on that court. The fact that Ginsberg was appointed and passed the Senate in 1994 with nary a whimper from the allegedly conservative RepubliSpendocrat party is most disturbing, and reveals a startling deficiency of common sense in the party that is never seen in the consistently Socialist-appeasing Democrats.

In a couple of days, Son-of-a-(Jorge) Boosh will have to reach deep in his files for another person who hasn't taken a political stand on anything, or run for dogcatcher, or ever had her picture taken for the school newspaper, for fear of being involved in a hard fight against the MegaLeftists like Ted Kennedy, Patrick Leahy, Feinswein, or our old pal, "Chuckles The Clown" Schumer.

The RepubliSpendocrats clearly did not expect to get a quiver of arrows flung at them about the poor choice of this nominee from their side of the isle.

Good.

Maybe they'll start paying attention to US, THE VOTERS, and forget the ceaseless appeals to the Left-Leaning Media, who will find them wrong on every action anyway.
