Bush nominates Limbaugh Jr. for federal courtSt. Louis Business Journal

Missouri Supreme Court Judge Stephen Limbaugh Jr. was nominated by President Bush on Thursday to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri.

Limbaugh Jr. has served on the Missouri Supreme Court since August 1992. His father, Stephen Limbaugh Sr., is a Senior U.S. District Judge in St. Louis.

Limbaugh Jr. has also served on the 32nd Judicial Circuit of Missouri, as a prosecuting attorney in Cape Girardeau County and a partner in a private practice. He is the cousin of prominent radio commentator Rush Limbaugh.

Only the president has the authority to formally nominate candidates for federal posts, like judgeships, to the U.S. Senate for confirmation.

1. I wonder if this one's as dumb as his cousin.

Given that he was nominated by bush, I'm betting he is. If he is, I hope the Congress rejects him.
