3. Add Goofball G. Gordon Liddy to the opposition list

Felons have rights, too

2. William Kristol opposed...

see:

Witness this Harriet Miers debacle.

"The religious right would have been happy to have a fundy in SCOTUS. But she failed to please the neocon intelligencia. And they came out in full force and pulled a frontal attack. And, in an unprecedented move, even before she could make a peep on her own behalf in front of Congress she is out. This is a testimony to the real poer in the conservative party."

4. seems like the majority of the religious zealots supported her blindly...

with the exception of Schlafly, Bauer and Weyrich. Fun fact is that thanks to Weyrich, Robertson and Falwell are someones, Weyrich made those assholes into what they are today...Weyrich even coined the term "Moral Majority", and help to fund those two assholes. P.S You should add Pat Buchanan to the opposed list, because during the whole time, he was crying like a baby for her to be withdrawn
