REAL REASON FOR HARRIET MIERS NOMINATION
Vice President Dick Cheney, right, and senior White House staff members, from left to right: Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove; Counselor to the President Dan Bartlett; Chief of Staff to the Vice President Scooter Libby; Deputy Chief of Staff and Harriet Miers, Legal Counsel for the President.
The real reason Harriet Miers was nominated by Cheney & Bush was to protect their legal rear ends . Every person in the enclosed photo with the exception of Miers could be subject to a legal indictment once the Fitzgerald report is released later this month.
In that regard, The Center for American Progress reported today that TOP ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS MAY BE INDICTED FOR CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY: ~ " On ABC's This Week, George Stephanopolous said the Plame leak scandal could become unmanageable for the White House if "as a source close to this told me this week, President Bush and Vice President Cheney were actually involved in some of these discussions." This would help explain why Bush spent more than an hour answering questions about the leak with special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald. But it would also explode the notion, carefully maintained by the White House, that Bush is merely a bystander who wants to “get to the bottom” of what happened."
The most corrupt administration in our nation's history is circling the wagons inorder to legally protect themselves from soon to be released well documented abuses of power ~ and what better person, than a loyal partisan player like Miers, to be their ultimate protection on the Supreme Court.
How partisan is she? David Frum, White house speechwriter, reports, “ In the White House that hero worshipped the president, Miers was distinguished by the intensity of her zeal: She once told me that the president was the most brilliant man she had ever met ."
Now that statement alone is enough to raise red flags throughout the nation ~ if not the world.
Once again, this appointment has nothing to do with the sanctity and integrity of the supreme court ~ this Cheney/Bush appointment is all about legal self protection .
And Harriet Miers is well versed in that arena.
Will Bunch, columnist for the Philadelphia Daily News, reports on his blog
"But she does know better than just about anyone else where the bodies are buried (relax, it's a just a metaphor...we hope) in President Bush's National Guard scandal. In fact, Bush's Texas gubenatorial campaign in 1998 (when he was starting to eye the White House) actually paid Miers $19,000 to run an internal pre-emptive probe of the potential scandal. Not long after, a since-settled lawsuit alleged that the Texas Lottery Commission -- while chaired by Bush appointee Miers -- played a role in a multi-million dollar cover-up of the scandal."
We can no longer settle for the Cheney/Bush Doctrine of deception, mediocrity and cronyism ~ this nomination cannot stand.
