What's wrong with this picture?

How do we get little laws and loopholes like this?

Do you think there's any, say, problem with this kind of a loophole?

You are right. There isn't any problem. We must all keep in mind that this is only a game. Learn to play it or stay on the bottom of the heap.

President Bush installed Charles Pickering on a federal appeals court Friday, bypassing Democrats who had stalled his nomination for more than two years, sources said.

Bush appointed Pickering by a recess appointment which avoids the confirmation process. Such appointments are valid until the next Congress takes office, in this case in January 2005.

Pickering had actually been rejected by the Senate Judiciary Committee, and re-nominated by G.W. Buffalobrain.

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
