IWF: Miers Chosen out of 300 Million, Not 150 Million
Most Creative Attempt to Reconcile Ideology and Partisan Loyalty goes to: The Independent Women's Forum, for this bit of reasoning:
While IWF supports the nomination of Harriet Miers to be associate justice of the Supreme Court, IWF rejects the feminist argument that the seat to which she was nominated is a 'woman's seat' … In originally nominating John Roberts to replace Justice O'Connor, the President laid to rest the notion that any one sex or ethnic group owns a particular seat on the Court. Having established that principal last summer, and having elevated John Roberts to be chief justice, the President was free to make this selection free from concerns of gender politics.
Whole thing here.
IWF exposes the "feminist fiction" of a Geena Davis presidency here.
