DVT reports that Senator Daschle voted against the nomination of William G. Myers III to the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. John Thune's campaign issued a press release in response with the headline "Thune disappointed in Daschle for siding with liberal extremists over South Dakota farmers and ranchers."
The AP has a report headlined "Democrats Block Bush Judicial Pick."
Earlier today, I quoted an excerpt from a piece written by Alan Simpson, a distinguished former senator from Wyoming in which he stated:
Later today, the members of the Senate will face a significant choice. They can either take an honest step towards restoring some semblance of reason to the most reversed circuit court in the nation, or they can surrender to the left-wing special-interest groups, who want to keep their unfair home-court advantage in the Ninth Circuit.
As observed by John Thune, Senator Daschle has surrendered to the left-wing special-interest groups, leaving South Dakota farmers and ranchers in the lurch.
