Gordon England<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tLa nomination de England \u00e9tait bloqu\u00e9e depuis huit mois. En d\u00e9cembre, Bush l’avait nomm\u00e9 unilat\u00e9ralement (pour un an) selon la proc\u00e9dure de recess appointment<\/em>. Le 6 avril, sans bavure ni trompette, England \u00e9tait confirm\u00e9 par la commission des forces arm\u00e9es du S\u00e9nat de John Warner. Le m\u00eame Warner avait fait un intense lobbying<\/em> aupr\u00e8s des adversaires de la confirmation, en promettant les habituelles compensations (contrats du Pentagone pour leurs \u00c9tats, pure pork-barrel politics<\/em>).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t \u00ab Is it time to start a Donald Rumsfeld resignation pool? More and more Pentagon watchers say it is. <\/em>[…] They say a freshly confirmed England makes a stronger candidate to step up from the No. 2 job.<\/em> (…)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb The vote surprised Senate staffers and England allies alike. <\/em>[…] England’s appointment comes as pressure builds on Bush to shake up his administration. With midterm elections looming, congressional Republicans hope he can reverse his plunging popularity before it takes them down too.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
