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..

Exactly. It's a concerted effort and WE NEVER EVER stand up.

I'm done with the GOP if they fold here.

They didnt even let us bend over and lube up. We got screwed the hard way by our own side. I hope Bush punishes these fools.

It's over.

I am sickened.

They told lies about him and now are saying they don't even know if they are true, but we'd better investigate.

I agree. Chaffee was looking for cover. Didn't want to be solo.

I give credit to Lugar. Looks like he is determined to call the vote, redgardless. But if the Dodd motion passes, then no vote today.

It sounds like it's not Lugar who is the problem.
