Time To Divert Attention From Rove...Name A Supreme

Yes it looks as though King George would rather divert attention away from his bum-buddy Rove than seriously look at his Supreme Court Nominee. Don't you find it curious that all of a sudden you see this report from Reuters "The time is now," said a Republican strategist close to the White House of Bush's announcement. A leading candidate is Judge Edith Clement of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit in New Orleans, the Republican said. Sources said the timing of an announcement had been moved up in part to deflect attention away from a CIA leak controversy that has engulfed Bush's top political adviser, Karl Rove. A Republican strategist with close to the White House described Clement as the leading candidate. "She's pretty untouchable," he said. "Plus, it helps take Rove off the front pages for a week." So there you have it. Rather than take the necessary time to really examine all possible nominees, this corrupt bunch has decided to try and save slime-ball Karl's ass and move up the nomination process.
