From the Daily Kos:
The Senate has confirmed 35 federal appeals court judges nominated by Bush, while Senate Democrats have blocked 10 others

You mean all the bitching and whining the GOP (and current majority party) is doing is over 10 lousy nominations?? The way they've been carrying on, I thought that hadn't had a single confirmation!!!!!

Time for a reality check boys.

It's even better than that. The total number of Bush judicial nominees approved is 200. That's 10 rejected out of 210 submitted. Many more of Clintons nominees were blocked (though not with a fillibuster, with a different rule that has since been changed).

Oh and I meant to say -- I love your 'Fear Nothing' icon. That's gorgeous.
