The Party of No, the Party of "Nopey, Nopey," if you're Sarah Palin, kills an Obama nominee. Of course, so does a president letting Dawn Johnsen dangle in the wind a full year without either pushing for a vote, or now, at least giving her a recess appointment.
Maybe, as Obama becoms more and more not just Bush Light, but ... what ... Bush Dark, no pun intended? on gutting civil liberties in the name of the War on Terror ... maybe Johnsen was abandoned by her would-be boss, who recognized her being stuck in Senate confirmation limbo as the perfect way to send a message.
Now, after first posting this, I see that Glenn Greenwald agrees with me in spades.
