1st in War, 1st in Peace, 1st in the Hearts of Her Countrymen

As President Bush was introducing SCOTUS nominee Harriet Miers on Monday, I couldn't help but wonder if the comments below said more about Miers or about Texas.

Harriet was the first woman hired by Dallas’s top law firms,
the first woman to become president of that firm…
the first woman to lead a large law firm in the state of Texas.

Harriet also became the first woman president of the Dallas Bar Association, and the first woman elected president of the state bar of Texas.
