Bush flashes the bird to the new Senate

I just came across this piece:

After calling for bipartisanship, President Bush surprised Senate Democrats with plans to renominate a controversial list of judges – some of whom may be unacceptable even to a few Republican senators. “It’s an unfortunate signal,” said one senior Democratic Senate aide.

The Senate Judiciary Committee has not received the nominations yet. As word spread about the nominations, however, the committee’s Republican Chairman Arlen Specter told reporters: “It is obvious they cannot move during the lame-duck session.” After January, he added, questions about the fate of the nominees should be “directed to someone else.”

I have to say that if that really did surprise anyone, they're fools. The man doesn't have a bipartisan bone in his body.

Of course, I suspect this is just some dumb reporter trying to paint the Democrats as fools once again.
