WARNING: KEY RIGHT WINGERS FALLING IN LINE BEHIND HARRIET MIERS
Sorry if this is a dupe. Just heard about it on the repeat of Friday's Thom Hartmannn show

Despite some bumps in her debut courtesy of a few of the more prominent self-appointed pundits, the key right wing political operatives were all falling in line behind the nomination of Harriet Miers for Supreme Court.

Yesterday, Ken Mehlman of the RNC and Tim Goeglein from the White house office of public liason jointly hosted a mobilizing conference call with most of the key grassroots religious operatives and legal stars on the far right, including James Dobson, Richard Land, Chuck Colson, Paul Weyrich, Jay Sekulow, Leonard Leo, and Rick Warren. They are plowing full speed ahead with the nomination, regardless of what you might have heard.

CrooksAndLiars.com has obtained an audio recording of the conference call and we have prepared a rush transcript: The full transcript is below. Here is a typical chilling quote:

"He and she both understand that if she were to get on the court, and she were to rule in ways that are contrary to the way the president would want her to approach her role as a justice, it would be a deep personal betrayal, and would be perceived as such both by him and by her."
