Sound Destruction: THE ROVE-ING AYE

THE ROVE-ING AYE


Proof that Bush is looking for a distraction from the Rove scandal?

Bush nominates conservative and non-female federal appeals court judge John G. Roberts Jr. whose nomination could trigger a tumultuous battle over the direction of the nation's highest court, senior administration officials said.

Oh, and he chose to do it in a prime-time press conference.

Wonder how the honorable judge Roberts feels about becoming the latest Bush pawn.

Yeah, Sar, I noticed that. I guess with a lifetime appointment you don't mind being a pawn. Ask Justice Thomas.

First using national security for political gain, now the Supreme Court (to an honest extent, somewhat)...tsk tsk.

Thanks for the props about my post title, Doug, I kinda surprised myself with it.

CW - tsk tsk and for shame. To exploit a process that is so seldom and ceremonious is indeed shameful.

So...

Does Rove have to coach Bush on how to handle the Rove scandal?

Gabe - I don't think the puppet is capable of turning against the hand that feeds him.

Nedhead - sickening isn't it?

Araider & Doug - perhaps you mean goaltending?
