Bushism with a smile

Michael Mukasey will be confirmed as Attorney General. He shouldn't be, but the quailing, temporizing Democrats won't have the backbone to say what's obvious: No man who talks in newspeak about torture and who reads the Constitution in favor of Bushist power grabs deserves to be AG.

Bu-, bu-, but doesn't the President have the right to appoint who he wants to the Cabinet? NO! If he did, there would be no advice and consent clause. The Senate cannot rightly approve a man who does not believe in the Constitution.
