[QUOTE]Originally posted by Grokca: [QB] I usually try to stay out of your funny internal politics but I found this in the Washinton post today. [QUOTE]President Bush says the percentage of judges confirmed by the Senate this term is "way below those confirmed under President Clinton or President Bush or President Reagan." Democrats, who control the Senate, say they have confirmed "a record number of judges." Who's correct? According to a Brookings Institution analysis, the confirmation rate for the 107th Congress, 61 percent, is lower than the 90 percent Clinton enjoyed in his first two years -- when his own party controlled the Senate. Democrats prefer to point out they have confirmed more judges -- 79 -- than the 69 the GOP Congress confirmed in Clinton's last two years, the 106th Congress. In that Congress, the Senate confirmed 62 percent of Clinton's choices, virtually identical to the current rate. � 2002 The Washington Post Company [/QUOTE]From this article http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A32561-2002Oct28.html [/QB][/QUOTE]
