So, when Bush does something right, he gets no credit for it? Is that how it works?
Bush's pick of Alito is strictly due to true conservatives showing their outrage at Bush's lame pick.
Miss Marple, do you really want to "credit Bush" with this pick?
If Bush were to due something really conservative on his own and surprise us, then indeed we could credit him. Perhaps if he were to get on national TV and ask Congress for an across the board 10% cut in the budget to help pay for the New Orleans freebie giveaways or to set a goal to quadruple the nation's nuclear power output to cut oil dependency with hard , concrete dates and timelines, I would givce him all the credit in the world.
You are asking me to give Bush credit for the Alito Pick? When that pick really should be credited to true conservatives through their backlash of a lame pick? Really? No way, Miss Marple. Bush needs to stand on his own and give us some REAL conservative direction on his own.
