It's hard for me to accept that the GOP senators did all they could.

The only real alternative I ever heard to this mess was recess appointments. It's an obvious choice, and one I don't really understand why it wasn't used. But President Bush and his advisers are not stupid people. For some reason perhaps someone here can explain, this option was not used.

The 24/7 option has always been a non-starter. And I've never heard enough solid detail of the nuclear option to really know if it would be legitimate.

But Ma's right. The villians here are the Dem senators. Period.

Yet just like in impeachment there will be a stampede of people blaming the Republicans.

Bush didn't need to nominate him and the GOP didn't need to let him out of committee. Life would have been simpler.
