NPR said the questionnaire Miers submitted was from the 1970s, while Salon says it was from 1989. Any idea which is correct?
So, the year Harriet Miers ran for Dallas City Council, she gave answers to a questionnaire from an antiabortion group that indicated she agreed with the group's positions. She also gave answers to a gay rights group that mostly coincided with that group's positions on the issues.
Should we believe that her answers truly reflected her own opinions, or should we suspect that she was telling the groups what they'd want to hear?
Should the Senate Judiciary Committee believe anything she says to them, or will she just be telling them what she figures she has to say to get confirmed?
