Miers' Remorse*

(* shamelessly stealing Mr. Kaus's line even after John Fund used it in The Wall Street Journal because I added an apostrophe to make the headline possessive and no one is reading this anyway)

Last week, Wonkette found a fun 2004 Legal Times profile of Ms. Miers that contained this fascinating nugget:
"She always remembers everybody's birthday."
That talent would undoubtedly help on the Court, because Justice Stevens always remembers holidays and Justice Ginsburg is always wandering the halls talking about "this day in baseball history," but no one has been good with birthdays since Justice Black left the Court (he was always passing around oversized “from all of us” birthday cards for everyone to sign the morning of someone's birthday and then organizing a "surprise" cake in Justice Stewart's chambers for the afternoon).

Except . . .



(Via The Smoking Gun and the NYT.) It turns out to be yet another left-wing MSM lie! If Miers is so good at remembering birthdays, how could she have forgotten the birthday of “the most brilliant man she had ever met” and "the best Governor ever"?

Don't let Drudge find out -- he'll start those sirens on his site and get everyone excited that a Rove indictment might be imminent.
