THE CRUX OF THE ARGUMENT
I was listening to Laura Ingraham this afternoon and she had Robert Bork on as a guest. They were talking about Harriet Miers and Mr. Bork layed to rest any doubt I had in what the real problem some, not all, but some Republicans have with Ms. Miers. And that's that she may turn out like David Souter. A conservative through the whole nominating process but turn into a liberal once on the bench. The everyday conservative may have actual objections to her because she has no experience, but it's the far Right that's getting to me. People like Ann Coulter. I like Ann. I think she's an intelligent woman who makes a lot of sense, sometimes, but I just feel people like her wanted Bush to nominate someone like Antonin Scalia. A hardcore conservative who thinks just like she does. It's a little hypocritical if you ask me. She goes on tv, radio and writes in her book that she's tired of the liberal activist judges, yet she wants Bush to nominate someone who could potentially become a conservative activist judge. Now, I'm just using Ann Coulter because she's the most vocal far-right personality out there. And like I said, it's not all conservatives. Only a select few. Me personally, I don't care. Like I told DeoDuce, Bush could have nominated his mother for all I care. I have more important things to worry about. Just so long as it's not a committed left-wing loon, and they have some experience with the law, I don't care.

It's not hard to see why when she says such stupid things:

"I have to say I'm all for public flogging. One type of criminal that a public humiliation might work particularly well with are the juvenile delinquents, a lot of whom consider it a badge of honor to be sent to juvenile detention. And it might not be such a cool thing in the 'hood to be flogged publicly."

She's almost as bad as Bush... except hers aren't accidents. Take a look some time.
