In his enthusiastic quest to deliver on the Democratic Party of "NO"'s apparent commitment to obstruction of all of the Bush administration's nominees, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid made Reference to a Confidential FBI Report, with regard to Henry Saad (the Michigan Appeals Court judge who is nominated to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit) Access to these reports is limited to committee members and the nominee's home-state senators.
