Beldar Slam Dunks National Review

Where the Harriet Miers nomination is concerned, why has National Review put up an online petition to crush this nomination? Why the rush? Why the closed minds? Beldar rises to the occasion:

By no means have NRO or NR been the only skeptics or critics of Ms. Miers' nomination. But they were among the first. They were among the most factually inaccurate (a black eye that will take a while to heal, I fear). They have been among the most influential. To varying degrees depending on whom one reads, they continue to be among the most vehement. And now it appears that institutionally, they're in the biggest hurry both to commit themselves, and to get other people on record against this nominee.

Why? Why the incredible hurry? Anyone capable of finding this petition online is certainly capable of finding his or her way to the White House's website, or to his or her senators' websites. Any of their readers who are in a hurry need not wait to have a say through other means.
