"Today I announced seven more outstanding judicial nominees for the district and circuit courts. And I look forward to working with the United States Senate to confirm these good men and women as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the Senate has failed to act on many of my other nominees. ... This leads to what are called 'judicial emergencies' - vacancies that cause justice to be degraded or delayed."

The link above details this unnecessary and contentious situation ... the ability of our system of justice to operate, purely and irresponsibly because of politics.
A couple of examples:
"11: There are 11 circuit court nominees now awaiting Senate confirmation.
6: There are 6 circuit court nominees pending in the Senate Judiciary Committee who have been nominated to fill vacancies that are considered "judicial emergencies."

Good morning (its Sunday here)!
(Not saying it’s so, but a certain #1 talkshow host mentioned that he was going to “Wyoming” to see “friends.” Just sayin’ and wondering if it could be a certain VP .... ;)

You don’t suppose - you’re not saying - that someone may be going to try to talk some sense into Cheney - to run for President? We can hope, can’t we?
