Robert Gates was confirmed by the Senate today by a vote of 95-2.
The two dissenting votes? Both Republican allies of Bush - Rick Santorum (his last vote) and Jim Bunning - who said Gates shouldnt have been so critical of of Bush's failed Iraq policy and is wrong to even consider bringing Iran into regional political/diplomatic discussions.
