Again, the assumption that the people Bush appointed were less qualified. What if the Republicans were as qualified, or more qualified?

I used to work at a county courthouse. In the days before I came there, a shift in power between the parties signaled a major change in employees across the board. That was done away with when people realized how fucking stupid and childish it was; you can push paper around just fine regardless of your political affiliations. Accepting something just because it "has always been that way" is what makes you a conservative; you are either afraid of or uninterested in positive change.

I accept it because there's no other option. If there was a viable option to the Republican/conservative side, I would select it. It has nothing to do with being afraid or uninterested in positive change. Neither party is interested in positive change. Don't think that Dems don't pull this kind of power play. As I said, this is a non-issue, the only reason it appeared here was in another tired attempt to show how supposedly bad the Bush admin is.
