Posted on 04/19/2005 11:07:48 AM PDT by 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..

I called the NRSC and got dumped to voicemail. I left the message that I would not be sending any money for the Committee nor will I work as precinct chair if money is offered to the RINO defectors.

ACTION LIST

1. Recess

2. Make recess appointment of Mr. Bolton

3. Convene Republican Senate Caucus

4. Strip Hagel, Voinovich, and Chafee from all committee positions

5. Re-assemble the Committees

6. Call for vote

7. Exercise Constitutional option, if necessary

8. Listen to RINOs and Dems whine and complain

9. Enjoy Victory

Exactly. After two weeks and these allegations evaporate, the Dems will just make up new ones.

Give them 2 weeks. It is true that Luger was blindsided. They will get an earful from all of us starting tomorrow afternoon when Rush Limbaugh finishes blowing a gasket. If they do not get the point in 2 weeks, then I will join you in quitting the GOP party.

Freakin UNBELIEVABLE! He ends with "we'll just have to trust each other?" He and other members were played like a fiddle. Biden will have his transcript in hand when they meet again so that he has loopholes to carry on some more. Lugar is just plain stupid.

Voinovich started the downward spiral by saying because he was busy and not at the hearings he needs more time to assess the allegations against Bolton.

Un freeping believable!
