Democrats Outraged Over Fox Recess Appointment - The Sleuth

I don't know if I care about the US Ambassador to Belgium but in another demonstration that Bush thinks the Congress doesn't apply to him he gave a Recess Appointment to Sam Fox. "A wealthy businessman and mega GOP donor, Fox gave $50,000 to the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth campaign that smeared Sen. John Kerry's (D-MA) Vietnam record and helped doom his 2004 presidential quest."

Bush nominated him to the position and since he knew he wasn't going to get enough votes, withdrew the nomination last week. So, this week he gave him a recess appointment. How to win friends and influence people. I wonder if he speaks one of the languages of Belium (Dutch, French, or German)?
