Someone told me that he is of Serbian ancestry and hates Bolton for something involving Balkans policy.
Anyone know if that is true or any other reason why he is trying to shoot down this nomination?
...and a wuss.
He's certainly of Balkan ancestry, with that name, but it need not be Serbian.
Don't know about that.
I do know that Frist loses again, his "deal" with Reid to close debate on Bolton was no deal at all.
Reid, McCain wins again, Frist & conservatives lose again.
If Bush had a pair he would recess appoint Bolton. He doesn't & won't.
Voinovich is bashing Bolton because he has bought into the BS charges made by the Dems about how he can be pretty hard to get along with.
Voinovitch is the same guy who as Govermor of Ohio violated the no fly order at an airport where the president of the US was present and while airborne in his State plane asked the controllers "What are ya gonna do...shoot me down"
He was fined $20,000 for that and he thinks Boltan is a bad ass.
Brilliant idea!
looks like the dems are filibustering bolton. time to go nuclear.
Those missing FBI files?
Dennis Kucinich and George Voinovich are two wonderful dudes! I mean they are both good, clean and wholesome. They're both standup guys, I tell ya!
Kucinich and Voinovich. Two of a kind, and both sons of a bitch. Yea, Cleveland! Don't we make 'em or what?
If you can't see that this is dripping sarcasm, I'm gonna slap you. Seriesly.
I'd check the list of more than 2000 FBI files hitlary fed into the database, called "WHoDB."
It still exists.
"Anyone have any inside scoop on why this clown Voinovich has it out for Bolton?" Ive heard comments that he is recieving money from Soros. He is my Senator. I have called his office in D. C. like many others though he seems to be deaf. He may be better than Jerry Springer and that's the problem in Ohio, the lesser of two evils. The lesser never seem to be much better.
OK - I give up. Let's trade Bolton for all of the dims in the senate. Let's see how well they can screw things up at the UN too
Is Sen Voinovich afraid that Bolton will do things that harm Voinovich, Needles and Dalton, the firm for which both his son and his former Chief of staff (Ted Hollingsworth) hold the titles of MGRM?
