Michelle Malkin has a good roundup of weekend Miers items, plus this further post. Also, the blog TruthLaidBear has just set up a very useful tracking page on the Miers nomination, and I've linked it over at the right side of our page.

A brief comment about Dr. Dobson: If Senator Specter and his committee issue a subpoena, I don't think that would necessarily be such a bad thing, and Dr. Dobson might not think it's such a bad thing either. But everyone should be aware that they might not hear what they expect.

And turning to Hugh Hewitt, he continues to have some interesting comments about this whole situation, including this one, in which he says the following:

Here is the fundamental guide to Constitutional Law: Majorities, acting through their elected representatives, ought not to be frustrated by unelected judges unless the statute those representatives have passed violates a clear Constitutional command.

I fully intend to blog against the Miers nomination IF she testifies in favor of the doctrine of substantive due process, which emphatically is NOT a constitutional command, much less a "clear constitutional command." I hope Hugh would do the same.
