And who are the 32 others? Or are we going to get 32 more threads about this?

Whose point, mine or the OP?

Sorry, I meant the OP's point. I don't see the big deal in this appointment.

Steve--

Agreed. I mean, he is being re-nominated, so it is not like this is a first.

Depending on the fact of when the judges were nominated, maybe it has to do with the fact that their nomination weren't acted upon and therefore they have to be renominated in the new congress.
