Lott / Pickering / Recess

[Gaard]

THEN

"Any appointment of a federal judge during a recess should be opposed."

- Sen. Trent Lott (R-MS) opposing the appointment of an African American judge, December 2000

NOW

"Judge Pickering's record deems this recess appointment fully appropriate."

- Sen. Trent Lott (R-MS), 1/17/04



O, I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.

I thought "then - now" quotes don't matter. Shall I break out the list again? Anyone up for some quotes about Judicial nominees?

I must've missed the memo. I figured they were still permitted...especially if you're name was Dean.

No you shouldn't, because you only bring out the dem quotes while conveniently ignoring sh!t like this from the Repubs. You partisan hack.
