I emailed our good senator this morning and have yet to receive a reply.

My question was simple enough: Why did you wait until the last minute to raise an objection?

I agree with you. Why would Voinovich not attend the hearings; never say anything to anyone; and then drop a bombshell on the President of the United States and embarass the Republican leaders of the Senate and the Foreign Relations Committee?

It is not like the Bolton nomination is a minor thing. It is a key part of the President's foreign policy of spreading democracy and freedom around the globe to protect American security.

You don't back stab your own President and deny him the people he wants to staff his Administration. I think if the Senate told Voinovich he couldn't have his staff picks, he would throw a fit.

I am just glad that Move America Forward is running radio ads to wake this man up.

I've written to both Vain and Whine in the past on a number of issues. I never, never, get a letter or anything back. I might as well be talking to the wall as I know from their voting records they are not representing me or my party's interests. Ohio needs a new set of senators, very badly.

Although I don't agree with him, but he is my district representative, Kucinich at least communicates with me. We don't agree, but I know what he's thinking.
