Miers back to Texas.

“Harriet Miers, who wound up in the middle of a political firestorm after President Bush nominated her to the Supreme Court in 2005, is rejoining the Houston-based law firm of Locke Liddell & Sapp.”

    I can think of no better place for here except before a panel of Senators in a the Congressional Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

    Leaving so soon? Hmmmmm. Well, it is going to cost more money for you to travel to Washington for your hearings, but that is up to you Harriet.

  6. Raven says:

    (sweet sticky sap, on a mound of fireants)

    Is Harriet the “Sapp” part of the firms name?

    “is rejoining the Houston-based law firm of Locke Liddell & Sapp.”

    Is she the sap?


  9. republic of stupidity says:

    Right, just in time to defend Gonzalez when he’s officially charged obstruction of justice.


  10. Republicans are the Fear and Smear Party says:

    she’s a good neocon scumbag. she’ll do a heckuva job screwing things up.

    Word is they were looking for someone with a little experience making the coffee and emptying the waste baskets.

    every “office” needs a dwight schrute


  13. The Eyewitness Muse says:

    They had to get her out of town before this broke. You won’t believe it!

    Gonzo Goes Whacko: Will Plead “Insanity” at Senate Hearing

    …To bolster his defense, Gonzales will appear at the hearing wearing pajamas “with a little red elephant pattern” and paper slippers. An aide will be positioned nearby with a drool cup for heightened effect.

    “If you’ll excuse the pun, he’s been working like a fool on this act,” said our source. “This morning he climbed the statue of Lady Justice and when visitors entered the building he’d pull back the curtain John Ashcroft had installed to cover her breast and scream ‘now show me yours.’”…

    She is smart to leave before she gets indicted with Karl Rove.


  15. loretta says:

    can we just give Texas back to Mexico? Put up a nice border wall?


  16. Fed the Fcuk Up! says:

    My eyes are blurry this morning. Is her law firm “Lick, Spittle & Crapp”?


  17. FTGOP says:

    Dewey, Cheetum, & Howe


  18. Hardy Haberman says:

    Harriet Miers is just another rat leaving the sinking Bush Administration ship. Next will be Dick Cheney for “health” reasons and that will leave Karl and company alone to deal with the flood of subpoens and indictments.

    Cheney will move to Dubai with all his Halliburton stock, which is now conveniently owned by a foreign company that is no longer traded on US stock exchanges. No chance of his assets being frozen before he escapes.

    Watch for it cause it’s comming.


  19. JohnDWoodSr says:

    Miers is joining the firm as a full partner, and they’re changing their name to Locke Liddel Sapp and Flack. Given her area of expertise, she will specialize in firing the prosecutors in any cases her firm takes on.


  20. Jhombi R says:

    I thought she and Gonzales were associates of Dewey, Cheetham & Howe.

    I have a perfect job for her, cleaning my toilets.
