Return Of The Screaming Babies
Oh, goody.
Many weeks more of childish infighting and self-important wankery in the wingnutosphere.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13 - The White House said on Thursday that Harriet E. Miers would not contemplate withdrawing as President Bush's nominee for the Supreme Court seat being vacated by Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, despite suggestions from some conservative commentators that she do just that.
Scott McClellan, the White House press secretary, dismissed questions about whether Ms. Miers had the stomach for a protracted, bitter confirmation battle that could hurt President Bush politically and said the news media and her critics were applying a "different standard" to her nomination than was applied to those of previous nominees.
"Anyone that knows Harriet Miers knows that she's exceptionally well qualified to serve on our nation's highest court, and no one that knows her would make such a suggestion," Mr. McClellan said in reply to a question about whether she would think about withdrawing. "And no one that knows her record and her qualifications would make such a suggestion."
Run along now, little boys and girls -- the adults know what's best for you. After all, we're doing such a brilliant job on Iraq and the economy -- you've said so yourselves. If we have to do another conference call, you won't like it.
And that includes you, Frum.
