Yeah, I haven't quite placed it. I haven't been able to tell if Bush has finally waken up to the idea that he has to do something as president besides take vacations, or not. He's really very sheltered and isolated from everything. So the question is, is this his nomination, or someone elses? If it is his, he might be in over his head. If it is someone else's, such as Roves, we could be in over our heads. Its so hard to pin down the psychology of a committee.
What, you think your friend deals in conspiracies of 1?
It isnt really suprising, i mean if she thought she was good for the job of course she put in a good word, and if she is on the committe then she has power to enact that change.
He does seem to spend a lot of time trying to find people to do his job for him, at that point are they self serving like Dick Cheney, or professional? It strikes me more of an abdication of his responcibilities then a personality judgment of who is picked.
For what it's worth the problem with Bush seems to be almost that he is involved too little. He's not doing his job and the people under him are having a field day!! I don't even think he's reading the bloody bills set in front of him, he hasn't vetoed anything!
Every president has issued vetos.-issuing none is rare! I don't care how much you like your teammates, its designed to take out the more ludicrous examples of fruad and interest-seeking. Then again he doesn't believe in government, does he?
It could also be his level of intimacy with economics: I'd say he could compete with most Freshmen, and about as cocky.

Miers was on the committee to find a S.C. Justice.
I'm not a conspiracy nut, so I really don't think much of it.
