Miers Makes Rounds On Hill (& displays her ignorance) |
In an initial chat with Miers, according to several people with
knowledge of the exchange, Leahy asked her to name her favorite
Supreme Court justices. Miers responded with "Warren" -- which led
Leahy to ask her whether she meant former Chief Justice Earl Warren, a
liberal icon, or former Chief Justice Warren Burger, a conservative
who voted for Roe v. Wade. Miers said she meant Warren Burger, the
sources said.

She was interrupted by Senator Leahy, and went on to explain that she
admired Warren Burger for his administration of the court. The WaPo is
very good at omitting key facts to slant a story.

What the WaPo left out: "Warren Burger for his administrative skills".
She named others as well.

Meir[s] & Warren
[Kathryn Jean Lopez 10/07 08:04 AM]
This is what I'm told happened:
"Miers was asked about Justices she admired. She responded that she
admired different Justices for different reasons, including Warren —
interrupted by Senator Leahy — Burger for his administrative skills.
Reasonable people could ask whether Burger was a great
administrator, but the comment is taken out of context by the Washington
Post. Miers didn't express admiration for his jurisprudence."
