Congress Says Goodbye, Belgium Says Hello Posted by Heather Hurlburt

Last week I wrote with some bewilderment about why the Administration had yanked the nomination of Swift Boat funder Sam Fox just minutes before it was to come to a vote in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

The answer -- which I and as far as I know all the media overlooked -- should have been obvious, and it became so today.  So they could recess appoint him, and a couple of other winners for domestic posts as well.

Senator Dodd and others held out some question as to whether a recess appointment was legal and promised a challenge.  One of the appointments even seemed to have enraged Senator Lieberman -- a neat trick, that.

But all the folks making happy talk about how Congress should move first to compromise with the White House on the Iraq funding bill (that's you, Ron Brownstein and Senator Obama) should maybe take this as [yet another] sign that this White House does not have compromise on its mind.

[Bvlgari replica watches]

we don't think it is reasonable to spend hundreds thousands dollars to buy a decorating watch. you can use those money to invest in other industry which will return you good profit.
here you just need to spend 100-200 dollars to buy a replica rolex watches.
Bvlgari replica watches are made by the rating 1:1 according to the original watches, and you can't distinguish the original and the fake watches when you look at the surface of the watches.
