The bag lady Miers was thrown under the bus: ‘not equipped’ for hard times


So, why would the president’s hyper-loyal White House counsel leave her post, at a time when Bush is likely to need a lawyer more than ever? Because the former Supreme Court nominee is reportedly not enough of a “street fighter.”

Republican advisers have been telling the White House to be ready for war, and many cited Miers as the wrong general. “The White House knew they needed to get a tough street fighter — that’s what this is about,” said one such adviser, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to preserve access to the White House.
