The Belgian Fox

It was reported Wednesday that Bush has named Republican fund-raiser Sam Fox as this country’s ambassador to Belgium in a recess appointment. This is the procedure that the Shrub uses to bypass Congress and get his way when it dares challenge His Highness. This appointment came despite the withdrawal of Fox’s name from consideration after it became apparent that he would not be confirmed because of Fox’s $50,000 contribution to the Swift Boat Veteran’s for Truth. You remember that fine group of patriots, funded by W to smear a decorated combat veteran by the name of John Kerry during the 2004 presidential campaign (why oh why does Bush and the rest of that vile group hate our troops?). For some reason, this latest finger in the eye of the country by that spoiled brat hit me hard. All I can say is, what a petulant, arrogant little prick. I am counting the days until that scumbag is out of office.

Update: According to the Washington Post, Fox's recess appointment may be illegal. Democratic Senator Christopher Dodd of Connecticut is looking into it. Go get 'em Chris.
