Every So Often, Sen. Specter Reminds Us Why We Keep Him Around

He just wrote to Obama proposing the renomination of the Bush judges.

I write to respectfully suggest that, as a sign of bipartisanship, you renominate some of President George W. Bush’s circuit court nominees who were not confirmed prior to the adjournment of the 110th Congress. To do so would echo the bipartisanship President Bush demonstrated when he renominated one of President Clinton’s judicial nominees, Judge Roger Gregory, to a vacancy on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.

Do not tell me about anything else Specter did this week. I am trying to have a nice moment here.
