"It's sad that even while the president preaches democracy around the world, he bends the rules and circumvents the will of Congress in appointing our representative to the United Nations." — Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J
I couldn't have said it better myself. Yes, I understand it's his right as president to appoint whomever he wants but has our dear leader learned nothing from his past mistakes with respect to what happens when you flagrantly do as you choose without the crucial support of the majority?
Though I'm somewhat saddened by the relatively slight nature of my own response to today's announcement, I recognize it's simply because, in light of all the deviance and deception perpetrated by our government of late, there's little they could do to disgust me any more than they already have.
Hmmm... perhaps I shouldn't say that out loud? (Knocks on wood.) Because, who knows what sinister orders Dubya could be giving at this very moment?

Of course not. He's learned that you can act as arrogantly as you please and get away with it. That you can make mindbogglingly stupid mistakes with impunity. And that others' opinions of you don't matter, because you can always change the rules of the game or find a workaround.
