Dow Jones is reporting that President Bush has re-nominated Andrew Biggs to become Deputy Commissioner of Social Security.
I do not understand. Just a short time ago, the Senate refused to consider Biggs' nomination for this position and Bush gave Biggs a recess appointment. The recess appointment would only be good until December 2008, while Biggs' term would extend to 2012 if he were confirmed. Why would Bush think that the Senate would be prepared to consider the nomination now?

ReplyDeleteFrom reading his bio it seems he is more qualfied to be Commissioner than the Commissioner.
