Tale of Two Men

I know this is few days late, but it really shows the glaring level of intellect and class of these two men. This is regards to Senators Reid (D) Nev, on left and Frist (R) Ten, on right, on the Miers withdrawl. Nd no, I did not mean to place the pictures in a political sense. What really strikes me is how immature and uneducated Reid apperas. His inflammatory remarks tragiclly shows how low the demos are reaching. It also shows how much trouble the demos are in because if this ther best, its no wonder President Bush owns them. Dr. Frist on the other hand, sounds as educated and as dignified as a leader shoudl be. Okay, the Terry Schivo diagnosis was a huge stretch, but still ...

October 27th, 2005 - WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist
today made the following statement:
“Harriet Miers has asked the President
to withdraw her nomination to the Supreme Court. I respect her decision and
appreciate her service to our country.
“I look forward with anticipation to
the President naming the next nominee quickly.
“We remain ready to fulfill
our duty to provide advice and consent on judicial nominees. And the Supreme
Court still awaits its next justice--a highly qualified nominee who is committed
to upholding the Constitution and who believes in the limited role of a judge to
interpret the law and not legislate from the bench."

Reid on Miers Withdrawal
Thursday, October 27, 2005
Washington, D.C. –
Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid released the following statement on Harriet
Miers’ withdrawal of her nomination to the United States Supreme Court.
“The
radical right wing of the Republican Party killed the Harriet Miers nomination.
Apparently, Ms. Miers did not satisfy those who want to pack the Supreme Court
with rigid ideologues.
“I had recommended that the President consider
nominating Ms. Miers because I was impressed with her record of achievement as
the managing partner of a major Texas law firm and the first woman president of
the Texas Bar Association. In those roles she was a strong supporter of law firm
diversity policies and a leader in promoting legal services for the poor. But
these credentials are not good enough for the right wing: they want a nominee
with a proven record of supporting their skewed goals.
“In choosing a
replacement for Ms. Miers, President Bush should not reward the bad behavior of
his right wing base. He should reject the demands of a few extremists and choose
a justice who will protect the constitutional rights of all Americans.”
