Trent Lott on recess appointments:
THEN
"Any appointment of a federal judge during a recess should be opposed."
- Sen. Trent Lott (R-MS) opposing the appointment of an African American judge, December 2000
NOW
"Judge Pickering's record deems this recess appointment fully appropriate."
- Sen. Trent Lott (R-MS), 1/17/04
So Clinton did a recess appointment one month before the new congress was sworn in, after the elections, a month before he leaves office. And that's a good thing?
Oh, I see the source now. Nevermind.
