George W. Bush's Halloween Fright Fest
After the debacle of the Harriet Miers' appointment and with the current desheveled status of the entire White House staff (Scooter, Turd Blossom, others), one thought that Dubya might reach out to the moderate Democrats for some support. He has no solid support with Republicans anymore since he didn't toe-the-line and appoint a Judge Conservative enough to assure a roll-back of Roe v Wade and a few other little fancies.
The 5th Vote! Dubya would have never lost the Extreme Far Right Wackos of the Republican Party. They have no place else to go.He would never win over any in the left of the Democratic party. He's burned too many bridges for that to happen.
But, he may have been able to get a dozen of so moderate Democrats to help him and the moderate Republican get an appropriate appointment to the bench.
Instead, on October 31st, All Hallow's Eve, he appointed the only person in America that may be to the right of Antonin Scalia, 3rd Circuit Appeals Court Judge, Samuel Alito.
While Judge Alito may not be The Boogie Man, his record would scare Lon Cheney.
