Harriet Miers and the GOP
We think we've come up with a way to understand the varied reactions the right is having to Harriet Miers.
Starting with the presumption that George W. Bush is an evangelical Christian, we take for granted that he considers Miers a reliable anti-choice vote. There is simply no way Bush would nominate someone who wasn't.
This would explain the support of James Dobson--and those like him. So, what to make of those on the right who don't support her?
Simple: they're the fakers. They're the ones who are totally full of crap when they spout their usual right-wing blather. Deep down, they don't want to see Roe v. Wade overturned.
And they know that's what Miers will help do.
To repeat: the Republicans (and their press lackeys) who are opposed to Miers are the phonies. They're usually happy to say whatever right-wing nonsense is going around to make a paycheck--but they don't actually want to see Roe v. Wade reversed.
Normal, freedom-loving, non-whacko Americans had better catch on: Miers is a stealth anti-choice candidate. The fake conservatives--the cynical ones--know something. We should be paying attention.
