This is an "in your face" move by the President. Damn right it will score points with conservatives.

"This has Karl Rove (search) written all over it," Napolitano speculated. Why do these folks think that President Bush can't even blink his eyes without being told to do so by Kark Rove?

"A man who defended cross-burning does not deserve elevation to the bench," said Sen. Charles Schumer D-N.Y., who led the opposition to Pickering in the Senate Judiciary Committee. In case anyone missed this. Kerry also made some choice remark, calling Pickering a notable supporter of cross-burning, or some such nonsense. Gotta love it.

After the general reaction from conservatives over the prez' immigration policy proposal, Pickering's appt is most definitely welcomed after the senate RATS held up his appt for two years or better. W will score points with this one.

"this recess appointment is a finger in the eye to all those seeking fairness and bipartisanship in the judicial nominations process," Schumer said" I got a finger for you Chuckie......

"As the New Year began, many of us had hoped the president would adopt a more bipartisan approach in his selection of judges. Instead, this recess appointment is a finger in the eye to all those seeking fairness and bipartisanship in the judicial nominations process," Schumer said in a written statement.There's no pleasing Sen. Chuck Gloomer.
He's repeatedly said his main concern about Bush's nominees is that Federal Judges serve for life.
Chuck should be happy that Pickering's appointment is for one year!!
Buck up, Chuck.

Whoa, wait a minute. I've heard talk show host after talk show host say the President didn't do recess appointments because he was above that "dirty" process. So which way is it?
To: Hacksaw
Democratic senators had filibustered Pickering's nomination, accusing him of racism, and saying he supported segregation while a young man and held anti-voting rights and anti-abortion positions while a state lawmaker. Ask Byrd. He'll know. He was there.

Now we need Priscilla Owen and Janice Brown. Oh, and if Miguel Estrada could be persuaded to join the fray again...
Worse yet for the dems, the President shoud make recess appointments of Robert Bork, Ted Olsen, and Zell Miller.

and saying he supported segregation while a young man and held anti-voting rights and anti-abortion positions while a state lawmaker. Perhaps he did, I don't know and I doubt Kennedy or Daschle know either. But I do know the Apostle Paul opposed Christianity and severely persecuted Christians before his Damascus road experience, yet he became the greatest figure of all the Christian church after Jesus himself.
People grow and and their attitudes change, and I'm quite confident Judge Pickering holds no segregationist views at this stage of his life.

The American Life League (search), which opposes abortion rights, said it was pleased with the president's decision. Corrected statement:
"The American life League, which opposes the murder of unborn human beings, said it was pleased withthe president's decision."
