Miers Withdraws Nomination
Harriet Miers withdrew her nomination this morning.
While this is almost certainly a good thing in the long term, I’m pretty pissed off that she had to withdraw her name only hours before our next issue is due out. You’ll see why in a bit, assuming I don’t fall asleep in my chair.
Update: Here’s the best joke I’ve seen thus far regarding the withdrawl:
I think it’s best to put this in perspective:
Harriet Miers nomination as a member of the Supreme Court was willfully aborted 4 weeks after conception.
This is about as close to Roe vs. Wade as she ever got.
