I'm taking a break from my Palin blogs to answer a few talking points from a fellow blogger who calls himself Jevica.
"So is it your idea that since President Bush is sending our kids into battle we must go along with everything else in his policy?"
--Jevica, this is truly bizarre. Are you trying to tell me that you really have no concept what loyalty is? Let us say that your child (or grandchild--I have no idea how old you are) came to you and said that he has a friend that is fighting with some school yard bullies and that while he supported him before, he decided to turn his back on his friend because he didn't like some of the things he did. In fact, while the bullies were hitting his friend, your child/grandchild was stabbing him in the back.
Would you say..."Good for you...you must always stand on your principles and you certainly should not support your friend in taking on the bullies unless you agree with everything he does, all the time?"
No, Jevica, we don't have to "go along" with everything anybody does...but we sure as h-ell had better decide whose side we are on...because one side wants to lose the WOT.
About Miers:
Did you know the woman has a doctrate in Law? That she was a practicing attorney in private practice for 27 years? That she has won awards from the Dallas Bar Associates, American Jewish Committee, Women in the Law, State Bar of Texas, Legal Services of North Texas, Anti-Defamation League, Dallas Woman Lawyers' Association, Women's Enterprise Magazine, Today's Dallas Woman, Texas Center for Legal Ethics and Professionalism and 3 years running from the National Law Journal? First Female President of the State Bar of Texas?
If that's "unqualified"...what do you say about an ex-lawyer turned talk show host?
Jevica, you said you listened to Laura during that time...you MUST have heard her go balistic saying..."We don't know anything about this woman...this is the MOST important judiciary position and he's giving it to someone no one has heard about!!!"
And if you had listened to Hugh at the time, you'd have also heard Hugh's shock when after learning Mier's background, Laura and company insisted on judiciary publication as a requirement for the SCOTUS seat...WHEN did that become a qualification???
It was a fit Jevica...one that would have rival a 2 year old. She betrayed the president and all those listeners that she assured that they could trust Bush.
And getting back to your initial question about Bush sending our children to war...let me ask YOU...are you saying that we can trust Bush when it comes to our children but NOT to pick an elite to sit on the SCOTUS? Because that is EXACTLY what Laura and company said.
And here's one question I would REALLY like you to answer...since you listened to radio talk show before 9/11...before the Miers borking...you must have known how Bush felt about illegal immigration...so why did you vote for him in 2000 and 2004?
I don't want the talking points...I want to know why YOU, who feel so passionately about the illegal immigration issue and is a principled man who see no reason to support Bush now, voted for him twice.
