Blunt: We Have the Votes to Delay Hagel Nomination

Breitbart ^

[Perdogg]

Senator Roy Blunt indicated Wednesday that there are enough votes in the Senate to delay the Hagel confirmation.

[AU72]

They should need 60 to get him in and thus republican senators.

[Cyber Liberty]

I was wondering if Blunt is in a position to know, so I went to the article, where I found this: Blunt expects Hagel to provide the information requested.

Next story about Blunt will be his "surprise."

[llevrok]

Obama’s response?

Details! Details! An executive order or recess appointment. Just give me a minute.

[pgkdan]

We don’t want his nomination delayed. we want it killed!

[bigbob]

If so it will be the first time Obama has not received what he asked for from the Senate.

[Paladin2]

So, delay it for 4 years.

[wny]

but they don’t have the balls...

[penelopesire]

Just waiting to see if Lindsey Graham will stick to promise to hold up nominations until answers on Benghazi.

[V_TWIN]

Beat me to it!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Blunt takes both sides of every issue.

[Cyber Liberty]

Sometimes three. Like a medical form I was once filling out, there were three options for “Sex.” Male, Female and Other. “Other?”

[Paladin2]

One can always pencil in another choice (like Yes!).

[biff]

I just put “sometimes”.

[Paladin2]

They are going to have to go to at least four questions:

Genetic Gender?

Physical Gender?

Emotional Gender

Aspirational Gender?

[SunkenCiv]

If they can delay and keep the pressure on until Zero’s back from Israel in March, it’ll be a miracle. Thanks Perdogg.

Will Hagel as SecDef put USA interests first? Is he competent, patriotic, ethical? If so I have no problem. If the answer is no then he should not be confirmed. If it is about gay issues or any another country I put it in the irrelevant column.

Pvt Goober Bagel is an incompetent idiot who used rigged voting machines to win his senate seat. He has no education to speak of, has never held any position in government that would qualify him to be Sec of State. The man is a loser. He only has to open his mouth for anyone to know he’s not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. This mental midget couldn’t lead a cub scout troup on a half mile walk without getting lost. His confirmation will show the world just how partisan and clueless democrats are. They could give a shyt less how competent someone is. Competence and qualifications are not a requirement for any government position, starting with the no-nothing, unknown paper-hanging SOB that they call president. Somebody also needs to look into Pvt Bagel’s DD214. He served in the US Army from 1967-1968. A tour in the Army back them was 2 years minimum. How did Bagel only have to serve one measly year? If he was only in the Army a year how long was he in Vietnam, 4 months like his hero John Traitor Kerry. I am also damn sick and tired of him being referred to as war hero because he was awarded two PHs. PHs were passed out like candy in Vietnam. How many did Kerry get in four months, four or five? So how long did this RINO baztard serve in the Army and did he get his ass kicked out for smoking pot. When he tries to talk he sounds like he’s fried his brains on pot for the last 40 years.
