The gift that keeps on giving. This time, he
forgets who controlled Congress before 2007.
“The president called me up and asked me to help shepherd judge John Roberts’ nomination through the Senate confirmation process. I was honored that I got that call. I was honored that he thought I had enough friends on the Democratic side that they wouldn’t run me out of town!
“We fought hard against each other, but I always thought that we had mutual respect. And that’s what it takes.
“Even though the other party controlled the Judiciary committee, we got some votes there. For a good, sound, what I would call conservative justice.”
This is particularly egregious because he was the Bush point man for getting Roberts through confirmation.
There really seems to be no “there” there.
