Are there similar turns of phrase used to indicate the choice made by a President to appoint someone to a key position in the administration -- e.g. "White House nominates Condoleezza Rice as Secretary of State".
- dllthomas 12y agoWell, I quickly found this: http://www.nytimes.com/1964/12/01/white-house-offers-to-appoint-keating-to-a-federal-post.html http://www.nytimes.com/1964/12/01/white-house-offers-to-appo... I'm not going to indulge you further. I'm certain you can find a way to sufficiently restrict the question that this is the first time this particular thing has happened, but it's nothing more than an excuse for misplaced outrage. It is probably more correct that the decision involved multiple people, and we all know where the buck stops. There are plenty of real things to be concerned about without making shit up.
