Statement on President Bush's Recess Appointment of Charles Pickering

Des Moines, IA, January 16, 2004

DES MOINES-Democratic presidential candidate Governor Howard Dean, M.D., issued the following statement on President Bush's recess appointment of Charles W. Pickering:

“This is a polarizing move showing the President's utter disdain for constitutional checks and balances.

“It is especially offensive that the President made this decision on the eve of the Martin Luther King Jr. national holiday, and one day after his photo op at Dr. King's grave.”
