When Tom Sowell Speaks...

Everybody go read Tom Sowell's column on the Miers nomination.

NOW! Drop what you're doing and read Tom Sowell immediately!

Here's why:

President Bush has taken on too many tough fights -- Social Security being a classic example -- to be regarded as a man who is personally weak. What is weak is the Republican majority in the Senate.

and:

The very fact that Harriet Miers is a member of an evangelical church suggests that she is not dying to be accepted by the beautiful people, and is unlikely to sell out the Constitution of the United States in order to be the toast of Georgetown cocktail parties or praised in the New York Times. Considering some of the turkeys that Republicans have put on the Supreme Court in the past, she could be a big improvement.

Thank you Mr. Sowell!
