Ted Kennedy says he needs more time to review Judge Terrence Boyle’s district court rulings before allowing him his due up-or-down vote.

kennedy (17k image) More time? Judge Boyle is about to celebrate his 4 year anniversary as a blocked Bush nominee. Senator Kennedy completed an entire Harvard education in less time than he's already had to review Judge Boyle's rulings.

If Kennedy can’t bring himself to form a timely opinion on Boyle, maybe he ought to at least cough up an anniversary present. Fruit and flowers are the traditional gifts for the 4th. But what’s the appropriate fruit-and-flower arrangement to say "Sorry for stonewalling your confirmation"?

In the meantime, I have a gift idea for the Senator.
