Mr. President , i think the American People deserve to see the contrast between how nominees were treated last decade during the Bush Administration versus how they are treated this decade during the obama administration. When former president bush nominated John Ashcroft to be attorney general. It was controversial. I was one of 42 democrats who opposed the nomination. And yet it only took 42 days for John Ashcroft to get a vote on confirming his appointment because neither i nor other democrats stood in the way and blocked actually having a vote.
