Friends and Lovers

Bruce Reed over at Slate has some bon mots regarding Miers’ putative squeeze, Texas Supreme Court Justice Nathan Hecht:

Hecht and Miers describe their relationship as on-again, off-again. For Miers’s sake, let’s hope it’s off again. Nathan Hecht is the kind of friend who would make anyone believe in the right to privacy.

He told the national press, “I know her judicial philosophy.” He told conservative bloggers like Marvin Olasky that Miers’s evangelical philosophy carries over into her judicial one: “She’s an originalist – that’s the way she takes the Bible.”

Only Wonkette cares whether Hecht “knows” Miers’s judicial philosophy in the Biblical sense. But now Hecht says he knows her Biblical philosophy in the judicial sense.
