A Texan take on Harriet Miers

Ms. Ivins comes out swingin':

AUSTIN, Texas -- Uh-oh. Now we are in trouble. Doesn't take much to read the tea leaves on the Harriet Miers nomination. First, it's Bunker Time at the White House. Miers' chief qualification for this job is loyalty to George W. Bush and the team. What the nomination means in larger terms for both law and society is the fifth vote on the court to overturn Roe v. Wade.

This is what happens when religious extremists are in charge. They're entitled to their beliefs. They're not entitled to impose them on everyone else. Try telling them that.
