Huh? I thought Bush 41 appointed Souter.
Right, but after the debacles with some of Bush's appointments going sour, It was Sunnunu's idea to appoint Souter. Souter had never said much, so the Dems wouldn't be able to smear him. Sunnunu went around washington telling everyone "Don't worry, I know this guy, he's once of us". He was wrong.
