Tony Snow had a very good friend of Judge Saab's on his radio show yesterday. It was Sheriff Michael Beauchard (not sure of spelling on last name) who is a sheriff in the MI county where Judge Saab sits on the bench. My recap of what he said is at post #121 and I'll also post it here.

It's Sherriff Beauchard. Sheriff in MI. Sheriff Beauchard says that he has no idea what Reid could be talking about. Beauchard himself has top clearance and if there was anything in Saad's files he'd have been told of it.

Saad's been nominated and passed in judiciary 3 times, this couldn't have happened if there was something in his file. Says it's personal because Levin wants his cousin's wife to get an appointment. Also that Stabinow got up in arms because Saab emailed somebody that she "practices politics and may pay a price" for gamesmanship the RATS are playing with the nominations in MI.

Saad has been in limbo for 13 years. He was first nominated to the 6th Circuit by the first President Bush.
