WASHINGTON (AP) — The senators in charge of Harriet Miers’ confirmation are demanding more information from her before hearings begin, one describing the Supreme Court nominee’s answers so far as ‘incomplete to insulting.’
Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pennsylvania, and senior Democrat Patrick Leahy of Vermont agreed Wednesday to begin Miers’ hearings on Nov. 7, but also jointly sent a letter to the White House counsel asking her to more fully answer a questionnaire she turned in Tuesday.”
