Re: Miers\' qualification
You have to understand that Bush is good at getting the type of person he wants in jobs.
Bush wanted Bolton, he was the right person for what Bush wanted to do with the UN. You may not like him, but his standing behind Bolton just shows that he will not be denied in treating the UN the way he wants it treated.
We have to put our own opinions aside, and look at this from Bush's point of view.
He has shown through his lower court appointments what he wants on the courts. I know enough of Bush to conclude therefore that Miers was not a mistake, not a quick decision.
She is qualified, despite the spin out there, and Bush knows what he is doing with appointments. Therefore, I am confident he has got it right, even though I was initially surprised about this pick.
