WH Withdraws Flanigan Nomination
The president this afternoon withdrew the nomination of "Timothy Elliott Flanigan, of Virginia, to be Deputy Attorney." Flanigan worked in the White House under ex-WH counsel Al Gonzales and helped formulate the administration's policy on detainee interrogation. He's also a former associate of indicted GOP lobbyist Jack Abramoff. A vote on his nomination had been delayed after Democrats asked for a second hearing to question him some more.
The AP reports that the decision was Flanigan's.
