Bush dengrates the reputation of the U.S. and the office of the POTUS, more every day that he occupies it. Meirs is an unqualified poitical hack, just like the hack who appointed her. Where is the substance of these two people? Why are some of my countrymen so willing to not only settle for so little substance in a POTUS and a SCOTUS justice, but actually defend it? This woman and our attorney general, and many others in high positions,"earned" those positions by vigorously working to cover up the truth of how inadequate Bush was and is, to be POTUS, when there was still a window of opputunity for knowledge of Bush's inadequacies to influence a greater majority to thwart his ascendancy.......

......Whatever her credentials for the high court, Miers' loyalty to Bush - who once called her a pit bull in size 6 shoes - is above question. When he first decided to run for governor in the early 1990s, he hired Miers to comb his background for anything derogatory that opponents might try to use to defeat him.
Miers also introduced Bush to Alberto Gonzales, who served as Bush's counsel in Austin and later in Washington, before being named U.S. attorney general.
During Bush's first term as governor, Gonzales used information turned up by Miers to persuade a local judge to excuse Bush from jury duty, a civic task that would have forced him to disclose his 1976 arrest for drunken driving in Maine. The incident was not divulged until the waning days of Bush's 2000 campaign for the White House. ........

I wil not "get used to" a thug receiving appointment to the bench of the highest court in the land because she successfully hid the background of another thug, so that he could be electable to the office of the POTUS. How do you?
