LIVE THREAD: Senate Coverage AND Senate Foreign Relations Committee vote on Bolton nomination

C-span

[ken5050]

OK..here's what we know..Senate is in recess for the weekly party caucus luncheons. Supposed to resume at 2:15. on C-span 2.. The Foreign Relations committee is supposed to meet at 2:45 to vote on the Bolton nomination. Lugar has refused requests for a delay. Just before the Senate recessed, Reid objected to Frist's UC request for the Froeign Relations committee to meet today. Frist withdrew his request..

Well folks, its about to be 5pm and guess what?

No votes, no nothing. Just talk and spin and lies.

I think it is time to change my voter registration. I have not been this angry since the Raiders traded Marcus Allen.

[You Dirty Rats]

President Bush needs senators he can depend on!

And we have to be VERY CAREFUL to direct our fire on the right targets -- like Voinovich. It looks like Lugar got double-crossed (unless he was in on it).

[woofie]

With all due respect to my friends on the other side of the aisle...The Senate sucks and Dodd is a doo doo head

[RoseofTexas]

The F**KIN mediaWHORES are going to have a hayday with this...UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

[buckrat]

DEWINE ALSO, BOTH ARE MY SENATORS, FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH.
THE AREN'T GETTING MY VOTES ANYMORE.

[cyncooper]

I'm sick to my stomach

Same here. I've been on record as saying Bolton was going to get voted out of committee easily despite the little ruffle of feathers now and again from the weasels on our side.

I am disgusted.

[truthkeeper]

I leave to pick up my grandson from school and come back to THIS?? I am sick!

[Eagle of Liberty]

Biden: "Chairman, you make the timeframe. We will research this man. I will probably still vote against him and you will still vote for him."

WHY NOT VOTE NOW THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[arbee4bush]

Geezudas! Biden is now calling the shots to Lugar.

FGS Lugar, grow a pair.

[clintonh8r]

He won't be approved on the floor, so why prolong the agony. We've already lost, why give the RATs more time to preen for the cameras?

[Pukin Dog]

He couldn't call the question until that rat-bastard Voinovich showed up. That is why Lugar let them talk so long. When he did show up, he screwed Lugar and now we have to back down.

[wrathof59]

I knew my wussy-ass Senator Lugar would come through and cave in the last minute, what a RINO!

[Howlin]

No wonder Sarbanes kept watching the clock.

And look: the Democrats are SETTING THE TERMS to Lugar!

[Darkwolf]

When this meeting breaks up, Biden and Boxer will be wiping tears of laughter from their eyes.

[lawdude]

There is some woman behind Biden that epitomizes the plain-jane liberal. She couldn't get a sympathy feel in cage full of horney, blind teenagers!

I am not one to poke fun of someone's looks but this is just tooo.....

[mystery-ak]

Please, everyone...when you get your monthly pledge letter from the RNC return it with a note on how you feel and no money...I did mine over the weekend....they will get the message when the dollars start coming in....this is total BS.....we are the MAJORITY....ONCE AGAIN the Repub's are played for suckers.

[prairiebreeze]

This is pathetic. The RATS are asking for a TWO WEEK DELAY!

[OXENinFLA]

Was that you I just heard on Michael Medved?

[Endeavor]

EXACTLY -- it's that arsehole Biden and his moron friend Dodd. Lugar looks like a total fool. I am absolutely furious!!! I am coming to the conclusion that term limits are necessary to get some kind of government which is accountable TO THE PEOPLE and NOT "THE CLUB."
