Finally, a voice of reason amongst some of the most idiotic speculation and conspiracy charges ever. Some of these guys sound like John Birch Society nutcases! Remember when Bush was silent during the Democratic primaries in '04? Everyone kept urging him to play his cards. He didn't until the time was right. He'll get his judges and probably increase his Senate Majority in '06.
I really loved the way W played poker with the education bill. "Here, Teddy, take my cards and play this hand for me." There is nothing I like more than hearing some Demwit deridingly mouth the phrase "No Child Left Behind" to hit the President, and by association Republicans, over the head.
