Good little Democrats work WITH the pResident

[Woodstock]

From this month's Washington Monthly:

I recently saw Tom Daschle, complete with flip charts, bragging on C-SPAN how Senate Democrats had blocked only two of President Bush's judicial appointments. Even that bastion of conservatism, The Washington Times, concedes that despite all the wailing of right-wingers, Bush has seen more of his appellate court nominees confirmed by the Senate at this point in his term "than any other president since at least the 1970s." With the conservatives clearly dominating all but one of the appellate courts, Daschle should, instead of bragging about how many Bush appointees he has confirmed, make sure he and his colleagues carefully scrutinize not just a couple of appointees, but every single one.
