Chair Richard Lugar (R-IN) and Ranking Member Joseph Biden (D-DE) continue a review of the nominee, based on issues raised at the committee's April 19 business meeting. 10AM-3:30PM ET ON C-SPAN3
I can guarantee that any 'Rat Senator from Ohio would NOT have voted to go nuke.
Look, Senator Voinovich may be Senator Sonofabitch but he's our sonofabitch. If he votes to drop the nuke and rants against Bolton we can live with that. No, he's not always reliable -- but would we really want a dirty 'Rat Senator who reliably voted against us?
thanks.....I'm slowly coming down off the ceiling...BTW..off topic, but did you see the piece about Edwards' new 100 acre estate in NC? It's a howl..
Fidel Castro!
Mo, where is that stuff we had on Otto Reich?
I have heard Hatch talking more tough lately than I have ever heard from him before.
O'Connel is a witch. According to the Novak article when she saw both Otto Reich and then a FoxNews crew in the hall of the Bolton investigations, she made a nasty comment like "I see you brought your own media."
I honestly don't think they know anything about anything. I think it's just another poke in the eye to POTUS because he and his party WON the last election.
That's where I'm placing my bet, and I told them so. And I asked if Voinovich was recieving pro cuban money channeled through Senators Dodds office?
Given all the praise of Tony, I turned it on but only caught a couple of minutes. I like Tony but he isn't on air here so I usually listen to laura instead of going online to hear him.
Sexist comment, actually.
I don't think that out of 11 million Ohioans that Voinovich is the best we could send to Washington, either. In fact, the 100 Senators collectively aren't even mediocre.
I saw Reich when he came out of that meeting with her; he said that it was HER and Biden and Dodd's staff who had for years done all the leaking.
He said that they are the WORST on the Hill; he named her personally.
WHY is Dodd so pro-Castro?
He also said that she had striken some of his verbatim testimony from the records for this committee.
If he says what it is, could you ping me? There is a war and it's not about Bolton.
I posted this earlier..worth repeating..FRist has lost 4 votes..McCain, Chaffee, and Maine's Pigeon sisters...so that's 41..there atre 3 left who are supposedly wavering..Specter, Warner and Hagel..I can't conveice of two committee chairs going againt the leader, and if Hagel wants to be president, well..so, it's a solid 51..
Money!
George Allen (R-VA)
Thank goodness Biden is done!
Nothin new in this hearing, unfortunately. At least, not yet.
Tony Snow was reporting that V would vote to USE the nuke option. In favor of it, if need be.
The UN is their back-up for pushing their socialist agenda. Look at the only things the Dems are fighting for - judges and the UN.
