Bush: Religion factor in Miers pick
 

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush said Wednesday his advisers were telling conservatives about Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers' religious beliefs because they are interested in her background and "part of Harriet Miers' life is her religion."

"People are interested to know why I picked Harriet Miers," Bush told reporters at the White House. "They want to know Harriet Miers' background. They want to know as much as they possibly can before they form opinions. And part of Harriet Miers' life is her religion."

nice to know hes stacking the supreme court with religious nuts who will strong arm americans against freedom of speech. War on Porn is a dirty one.

white american religious nuts are a virus against humanity.

So much for seperation of church and state.

Once again asshead fails to differenciate between state and church.

A little subtltey in his cronyism is in order

:disgust

exactly what I was thinking. Its a war that no one wants, except for the small group of christian extremists and bush.

right on , the place is going to hell in a handbasket :(

This woman can not get elected to the court or else we will all be in trouble.

we all knew it was coming when he got re-elected and I saw some gfy'ers bitching on how we need to support our president and that he is never going to affect our industry... well guess what??

and this will survive his term:

they are there for life !

There's already a huge backlash, even among his most loyal supporters.

bump, Where's the jackass repub's that voted for him??

yes I noticed that as well.. they have been keeping awefully silent since this all happened.. do we need to go back into the history and force them out into the open asking what their opinion is now - since they were the ones who voted for him in the first place

That's not a bad idea... I know around 8 of them

His supporters are against this one only because they can't tell that she's conservative ENOUGH, based on her record.

maybe thats why this story came out on cnn - to give his supporters the comfort to know shes against abortion and porn etc. shes in bush's imagine

I am so fed up with Bush and his administration. I still can't believe he's president! Don't know when I'll get over that joke. Bleeding us dry.

This administration is a joke. Unfortunately, their agenda and the lengths they are willing to go to to push it on the rest of us isn't a joke.

ANY color or national background 'religious nut' is a virus against humanity...

:/

:helpme

Even they are too embarassed to defend this idiotic nomination.

That scabby c*nt Ann Coulter even isn't siding with him on this.

You will never see a "Liberal" at a Klu Klux Klan meeting....
Unless he is the one nailed on the cross during the burning
