George Bush actually said...

Harriet Miers has given generously of her time and talent by serving as a leader with more than a dozen community groups and charities.

I believe that Senators of both parties will find that Harriet Miers's talent, experience, and judicial philosophy make her a superb choice.

The Supreme Court is the guardian of our constitutional freedoms and the protector of our founding promise of equal justice under the law.

I know that Harriet's mother is proud of her today, and I know her father would be proud of her too.
