Miers has withdrawn
Miers Withdraws Supreme Court Nomination
By TERENCE HUNT, AP White House Correspondent 5 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - Harriet Miers withdrew her nomination to be a Supreme Court justice Thursday in the face of stiff opposition and mounting criticism about her qualifications.
President Bush said he reluctantly accepted her decision to withdraw, after weeks of insisting that he did not want her to step down. He blamed her withdrawal on calls in the Senate for the release of internal White House documents that the administration has insisted were protected by executive privilege.

Collectors of tribute
Avedon writes about how much the Rs use of "Democrat Party" instead of "Democratic Party" bugs her. It has always annoyed the hell out of me, too, so most times, when writing about them, I like to call those other folks the "Publican" party.
