NDT - Thanks for the kind words. You are correct, Harriet is my aunt, and we are very close.

As you can probably imagine my entire family is very excited and proud. We know her to be a special person and believe - if confirmed - she will make a terrific Supreme Court Justice.

GMG!

I know its been posted, but I feel it needed Subject Line headlines, too, Harry.

We are proud for you and the entire Miers clan, Harry "Miers." cool.gif

(Now, Harry, lets talk about some pork-barrell ideas I've been meaning to discuss with you for a long time now)! blink.gif

That is awesome, congrats.

See if you can swing it during her confirmation hearings to have her say "Mean Green Football Rules!!!"   laugh.gif

I can see it now as Harriet sits at the table being qustioned by the Senate Judiciary Committee

Kennedy: "Ms. Miers, in 1858 in Ableman vs. Booth, the Supreme Court stated that a habeas corpus, issued by a State judge or court, has no authority within the limits of the sovereignty assigned by the Constitution to the United States. Do you agree or disagree with this stated view?"

Miers: "With all due respect Senator Kennedy, GO MEAN GREEN!!!"

Kennedy: "Pardon me ma'am."

Miers: "Pardon nothing. You heard me. But I'll repeat myself for posterity. GO MEAN GREEN. FIVE IN '05 BABY!!!"

Coming from a family with a bunch of attorneys who constantly talk about the SC situation, I just wanted to congratulate you and yours! Do you think that she can work on getting Fouts ruled unconstitutional and get us a replacement in the near term? smile.gif
