More Bush cronyism

I spent the better part of yesterday writing an article on the impending nomination process of Ellen Sauerbrey--a Bush nominee to head the Bureau of Population, Refugess, and Migration (PRM). The woman has--by her own admission--NO experience in the areas of refugees and migration and she has been continuously hostile towards women's human rights and reproductive health services. Given the duties of the head of PRM, this could be another Michael Brown, FEMA-style disaster appointment. Her approval was in limbo because the Senate Foreign Relations committee was waiting to confirm or reject her (Thanks Barbara Boxer!), but, as I warned in the article, it's always possible for Little Bushy to bypass the Senate and appoint Ms. Sauerbrey with the same tactic (a recess appointment) he used to make John Bolton the U.S. Ambassador to the UN. Well, guess what Little B did today?
