Hazy Harriet

The Wall Street Journal was exactly right when it said the profile of Harriet Miers became hazier yesterday. Up until yesterday we were just supposed to trust the President and support Harriet. Well I trust the President but he isn't perfect. John Roberts was an excellent nomination. Even Reid agreed. The problem is that all we know about Miers is that she filled out a survey in 1989 that would lead us to believe that she supports overturning Roe.

That was 1989, this is 2005. What does she believe now? What is her judicial philosophy? Does she have a judicial philosophy? We don't know. The outlook on Harriet is too hazy. I hope our President knows he has to do more for his base than just put someone in front of us, for us to support them.

I don't mind that she is a Bush crony as long as she is qualified. I do want to see abortions dwindle down to very low numbers and have life celebrated in this nation. I do believe we need more pro family, God fearing people in office and on the bench. But what I do not want, is only those things in our leadership and our judicial system. I want those who are qualified and those with a judicial philosophy that agrees with my own. I just don't know if Hazy Harriet is that person.
