From: "Gary Britt" 

Mark don't confuse the liberal demos with the facts.  They slur a man or
women's reputation and tell LIES about them and their character because
they are not liberal enough for them.  The truth has nothing to do with it,
but then it seldom does for the national democrats who would sell their
mothers if it would buy them enough votes.

Clinton makes a recess appointment of a divisive judge and the liars say oh
but that was a good thing.  Bush makes a recess appointment of a good man
who has undergone 2 years of character assassination based upon nothing but
LIES, and that is an abuse of constitutional power.

You are right of course about why its hard to get many judges to accept
recess appointments, but I think Bush, if he played it right, could get
overwhelming public support if he gave a big middle finger to the liberal
demos in congress and truly made an unprecedented recess appointment of
about 200 judges.  Won't happen, but I can dream can't I.

Cheers,

Gary
