I've been wondering why Bush STILL hasn't nominated a replacement for Pickering on the 5th circuit- he resigned over a year ago. This deal with the Gang of 14 not to fillibuster only lasts til next November- he needs to hurry up and nominate someone. Should have many months ago.
I am trying to find out how many vacancies there are on all 13 Courts of the Appellate Courts, 1 through 11, DC and Federal.
