Harriet Miers withdraws

Well, we all know that Harriet Miers has withdrawn her nomination for the Supreme Court. She has done the honorable and gracious thing. The reason for her withdrawal was to protect from disclosure certain confidential "internal documents" from her White House stint, or at least that is the story according to both Ms. Miers and President Bush.

I am a backer of the President, but not his sycophant (remember that this Blog is "a politically-incorrect perspective that does not necessarily tow the party line"). Methinks that Harriet's withdrawal has more to do with the prospect of having to disclose her personal income tax returns than anything the White House is reluctant to pass on to the Senate.
