Will Ozzie Be Next?
Now that Miers has withdrawn from consideration, that's the question.
The Miers nomination has the whiff of being a Bush choice all the way. It seems like it was a choice the president insisted upon and nobody in his circle was willing to take him aside and say, "Mr President, uh, we have some big problems with this one ..."
I have to say this has gone beyond partisan politics. I'm feeling genuinely embarassed about my government for the first time since post-election 2000. For the sake of the country, I sure hope this executive branch can get its act together. It's like seeing the Yankees lose 33-0.
