I think Bush* did make this decision and did so all on his own. He is astounded by the revolt from the right. He pretty much thought he would get the same rubber stamp as he always has had. The big difference here is this was his own decision, and not Rove's or Cheney's, and Congress is starting to really actually fear for their jobs. Bush* is bringing them down they feel even though it was them that rubber stamped every thing the Administration wanted. America is beginning to stir (the giant is awakening) and the rats are about to abandon ship. The cronyism factor is just too blatant, even for the most dimwitted amongst them.
