"Now Bush is president and what do the democrats do to reciprocate, nothing, they won't approve Bush's nominees."

Umm, virtually every one of Bush's nominees has been approved. Short of a filibuster (yes, I'm aware they've done a couple), the Democrats can't stop the nominees because Republicans control the Senate.

Umm, tell that to judges: Terrence Boyle, John G. Roberts, Carolyn Kuhl, Priscilla Owen,Miguel Estrada, David W. McKeague, Charles Pickering, Michael McConnell, Claude A. Allen, Timothy Tymkovich, Deborah L. Cook, James Leon Holmes, Susan Bieke Neilson, Henry Saad, Edward C. Prado and Richard A. Griffin.

160 names submitted 121 confirmed, (the 39 not approved are the more conservative of the lot) not too good of a record, considering the pubs rubber-stamped most of Clinton's 373 pro-abortion nominees with a Republican Senate for 6 yrs. Bush and the republican senate better get their acts together by putting pressure on the Dems. who are obstructing the nomination process.
