Whoa! This came outta nowhere...I wonder if he has seen and heard the conservative backlash about the amnesty plan. He may be gearing up to appoint more of these.

So does this mean Pickering gets to sit at least until the end of 2005?

Also, Estrada declined a recess appointment.

Now Bush hopes all the folks pissed off about immigration will shut up...

Timing is no surprise, and I do approve of this action.

Read the writing on the wall....

Good for him. Hats off to the Prez on that one.

Pickering was miserbly smeared by a bunch of dishonest dolts.

It's about time. He had to do something. His inaction on nominations has been ridiculous.
