Not much of a surprise...

From what I have read and hearing on the political talk shows.. this is probably best. I was concerned that her religion was (or seemed to be) such a factor in her nomination.

Excuse me?

WASHINGTON (AP) President Bush says the religious beliefs of Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers are part of the reason he picked her for the high court.



Yep. Gonna have to look into this a litte closer seeing as how its being reported her being "a born again Christian" and even more importantly.. an Evangelical Christian who are more likely than not to be extreme right wing.
