Pickering Appointed to Appeals Court
Bush has finally taken advantage of recess appointments by appointing Pickering to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals. Pickering, one of the judges that's been filibustered in the Senate, has been waiting confirmation for nearly two years.
Hopefully Bush will take actions like this with other judges being held up by the Senate Democrats unprecedented filibuster of appealate nominees. Maybe follow what some of suggested and put Bork on the DC Court of Appeals.
