Miers answers questions
From Dallas Morning News

(snip)

Her single two-year term on the council was a learning experience, but not always a pleasant one. Colleague Jerry Bartos in 1991 called her "the consummate loner" and rated her effectiveness as "zero." Ms. Miers' response: "I'd like to say I'm not doctrinaire. ... But I don't much care what people think. I can't afford to."
