Sen. Richard "dick" Shelby R-Earmark gives up
The report in the Huffington Post doesn't have any inside details, but Dick "dick" Shelby has removed his holds on Obama's nominees. The results are good but it sure would be nice to know who squeezed his nuts.
Update: The dick still has holds on three military appointments related to his Airbus earmark.
* Terry Yonkers, Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Installations, Environment, and Logistics (Nominated August 4, 2009)
* Frank Kendall, Principal Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (PDUSD) for Acquisition and Technology (Nominated August 6, 2009)
* Erin Conaton, Under Secretary of the Air Force (Nominated November 10, 2009)
