Bush has either lost it or is extremely stupidly stubborn -- or both! because this kind of nomination does NOT promote any sort of unity between the parties. And he wonders why his nominees come under political pressure? Get real.

We all know what Republicans are don't we?
Who's moaning about underhanded tactics? It's not like the Republicans would do the same if the situation was reversed is it???

He's not supposed to be creative - that's what the liberals do with interpreting the constitution - not the conservatives.
It's not Bush's job to unite the parties - and oh yeah....we see the democrats doing that ALL the time
Welcome to planet earth.

If you barely squeak into office in the US, you have a mandate. If you barely squeak into the PM seat in the UK, everyone immediately says you'll have to begin making concessions.
Why the difference?

As for the democrats resorting to underhand tactics because they lost the election, hello pot, meet kettle.

I would be inclined to believe most people voted on what they heard on TV.

Or who have assholes like Rove working for him, assholes who are willing to put intelligence workers into harm's way as a form of political retaliation, in a time when we desperately need good intelligence information (which apparently we did not get about the Iraqis possessing WMDs).
You can say that you like the Republican platform, ideology, agenda.... but Bush is a lying, conniving idiot.
