Two exceptions to that, and they are BIG exceptions. Roberts and Alito. They may wind up being the critical thing that Bush did right.
Maybe. And I never wrote that he didn’t do anything right.
But note that even in this example, his first choice- which he was forced to withdraw by his own supporters- was Miers, not Alito.
There were other instances where he couldn’t so the damage he might have done left to his own devices. Remember UAE and the ports?
