More fun with Miers and PlameGate

My guess that Miers is an attempt by Rove to sniggle a conservative loo-loo onto the SC was wrong (I seem to be batting zero on this Miers thing) this weekend a source in the White House said the nomination idea came from Andy Card. However, as THIS NYT's article discusses, this entire rupture apparantly stems from a strong desire by the religious nuts in this country to "come out of the political closet" and take what they see as their rightful place at the right of God, er the President. Talking in "code" is no longer going to cut it. It's a move Shrub might be willing to make, but that his handlers will never allow. This explains why so many are angry at him even though he made a special point to nod and wink every time he said that he knew "her heart." The quackers want Shrubly to come out and say, this woman will turn over Roe, appoint God head of the EPA and deport those who want to teach evolution in school. Which has led to a fantastic screw up by the profound asshole James Dobson of the ill-named, "Focus on the Family" (yea right) who has basically came out and told the world that Bush assured him that Miers is a conservative nutcase. This is the heart of the entire Bush enigma- what the hell is wrong with people that they cannot see that he DOES NOT represent any "traditional conservative values" like smaller government lower taxes for EVERYONE etc. He's a goddamn Taliban guy and always has been. He wants God to be the President and Jesus to be his Chief of Staff. Hopefully this whole debacle will wake a few of the seemingly catatonic middle road republicans- but I'm not holding my breath.

I'm not going to say too much about the Plame thing yet- but it sounds like there is going to be some major happenings afoot over the next 2 weeks. Tick tock Rove- ya scumbag.

Oh, and although I'm not a sports guy- GO WHITE SOX!!
