[ETERNAL WARMING]

I don't care for the idea of Bush picking the Senate leader, either

Nor I, cap. I don't like the way the White House and Rove are shoving this thru. The Legislature is a separate arm of the government, not an enabler for the CIC.

"I don't like the way the White House and Rove are shoving this thru."

Did you have the same objection to Bush and Frist "shoving through" the election of these same Republican Senators a couple months ago? How about all the funds the President raised to support those candidacies? Was the President "interfering" with the legislative branch there too?

Fact is, Senate Republicans owe George Bush big time. He didn't spend his time and political capital for nothing -- no politician ever does.
