#1 More I say! The folks over in DU have their panties inm a wad now! I say he should make all of the filibustered Judges recess appointments. That will send ther Dems over the edge and into the abyss. I bet Daschele D-SD will be 'Saddened' this afternoon and Kennedy Lush-MA will have a cow. That's two more open seats! GO GEORGE GO!

#2 As a football fan, I can appreciate a well-executed end run...

#3 Bravo! You are right about the liberals having their panties in a wad. As for those metrosexual liberals, (fashion pics on previous post) I can only wonder what type of panties they have wadded. And Kennedy won't just be having a cow..he'll be having a mad cow.

ok.ok..sorry..couldn't help myself.

#4 Now it's time to win some senate seats, make it a moot point.

#5 4thInfVet---You beat me to it. GW needs to take care of alot more judges during the recess. And he needs to publicly tell why he is doing it. More senate seats need to be won, but that will only be done on presenting candidates with sound values and principles, and NOT on pandering to groups. My boiler pressure is still up on this illegals thing. But that is another topic and is not part of this one.

#6 I would like to see the following recess appointments:

Robert C. Bork
Kenneth Starr

You might even see people spontaneous combust over at DU. ;)

#7 This IS a big deal for GW to take the recess appointment route. As Sherman made Georgia "howl", this is going to do the same to the Dems. And speaking of Teddy Kennedy, is there any way to persuade him to drive that bus around Iowa carrying Dean and Martin Sheen?

#8 Kennedy needs to take a bus to Bermuda. There is no more worthless man in the US Senate. Robber~~barron~~t Byrd is just a spendthrift. Tom Daschle has about as much integrity as Brittney Spears, and the other loon, can't remember his name, makes Hillary look good.

That said, there are a few Republicans that could stand a trip or two to the sheep dip, as well.

#10 GWB should've waited a little longer to do this, like say, August. That way, the foot-stomping would last until close to November and it would still be fresh on the voters' minds....
