Perino Falsely Claims Congress Has ‘Not Moved Forward’ On Bush’s ‘Good’ Judicial Nominees

The LA Times reports today that the current 110th Congress has approved more of Bush’s nominees than did the previous GOP-led Congress:

Despite the Republicans’ loss of control of the Senate, 40 of Bush’s judges won confirmation this year, more than in the previous three years when Republicans held the majority.

By contrast, the Republican-controlled Senate in 1996 confirmed only 17 of President Clinton’s judicial nominations.
