The Nomination of Harriet Miers

Paul Deignan at Info Theory is surveying blogger positions on the Miers nomination.

Here is my reponse:

I am currently opposed to the nomination of Harriet Miers to the U.S. Supreme Court. Her positions regarding the right to life and Roe v. Wade are unclear.

Howard Phillips summarizes other reasons for concern with which I agree, and other sources have corroborated his summary: "Among the matters we considered were her reported support for (1) the International Criminal Court (ICC), (2) homosexuals in the U.S. military, (3) homosexual adoption, (4) women in combat, (5) the "No Child Left Behind Act" ( http://www.howardphillips.com/ ) .

I would love to see some concrete information about her record and positions on all of these issues that would show that they are different from those stated above. Her record seems to contradict President Bush's statements about her being a "strict constructionist." Therefore, she should not be confirmed.

Pray for the U. S. Senate, President Bush, and these United States of America.
