Am I missing anything ....

Besides intelligence? Lots!!!

Clinton appointed Bill Lan Lee, who was turned down in the Committee hearings. Bill Lan Lee was found unfit, since it became apparent that he would enforce his own version of the law as he saw fit, not as the Courts had declared. So Bill Clinton then gave the guy a recess appointment, and then made the guy "acting", and thus usurped ALL Constitutional provisions.

Bush gave recess appointments to a few key people that some Senate Democrats refused to even allow hearings to proceed. These Democrats would rather cripple America and the economy during a time of war for partisan principles, than to allow the hearings to proceed.

Bush has indicated that he would still request hearings on the individuals named. My challenge to the Democrat traitors would be to hold hearings, and vote to deny confirmation, and request Bush to remove the the persons appointed, if that is what the majority votes for. But I somehow doubt that the Democraps will do anything above board like this.

Before the time Bush's recess appointments' one year terms are up, the next interim election will have taken place, and Bush is hoping for a senate majority again, and gains in the house. If he is right, then his recess appointments will be made official. If he is wrong, he can do like the dems did, and leave the recess appointments in place beyond the year anyway. Let the dems yowl, and beat them at their own game.

Thanks for the information ... I do understand Clinton's use of the tactic was far more egregious. (The Evil Party's always is).

But what I feel like I'm missing is the Democratic outrage. We were beside ourselves during Clinton's abuses. Have I somehow missed entirely the Left's foaming at the mouth over Bush's beating them at their own game?
