Good. Just DO it.

[steveyp]

Excellent. The Dem's heads will simply explode between Roberts and Bolton. Now we just need to push them over the edge with another Supreme nomination.

Bwahahahahahaha...

[jos65]

Precisely why he was elected.

[Utmost Certainty]

Sounds too good to be true...

[jocko12]

Senator Frist did GWB show you some gonads or not.

[ladyinred]

Woo Hoo! I sure hope this is true!

I knew this was coming....W is not going to allow the rats to stop the man Condi wants in the U.N.

W allowed the rats to have an opportunity to do the right thing...now all the rats look like what they are ANTI-AMERICAN OBSTRUCTIONIST...

so in his true form...W gave all the rats his middle finger with the coming recess appointment of Mr. John Bolton.

THUMBS UP, Mr. President.

STFU on the opposition - they've held up Bolton's confirmation because they don't want UN reform. Nothing grates them more than to see a fox in their henhouse. Which is of course why the President should name him to the job when Congress goes on its summer recess - life can't wait for an effective spokesman in New York to represent America's interests at the world body.

This is good. Congress should have little say in foreign affairs. Congress has two jobs: to appropriate funds, and to remame French Fries "Feedom Fries"

[Rca2000]

Well, I hope he does this, and just tells the Lib's to shove it.

I don't understand the issue about his form. Apparently he said on a form that he hadn't done any formal interviews, but it turns out he did. But what difference does it make? How could it have hurt him to have mentioned he had talked to the state department?

They should turn over what he said in the interview and be done with it. It's funny that the MSM has no problem with the democrats in the house all suddenly finding they had "inadvertently" not filled out their travel forms, but assume that Bolton purposely lied.

But in order to believe he lied, you have to have some reason why he would have wanted to hide this.

This is a democrat trick. Ask lots of details about things people forget about that don't matter, and then call them liars when they don't remember.

But give yourselves a pass when you don't remember. Like when Hillary had no idea how the law firm records could have turned up in the white house residence. And nobody could remember who hired Livingstone (that was my favorite).

Precludes Bolton from a recess appointment??? I think not. Someone should tell Chaffee that he doesn't get a say in recess appointments.

[decal]

Hmm, seems the Democrats have a problem: leave and have Mr Bolton appointed, or stay and vote on Judge Roberts.

"Which is more important, UN Ambassador or Supreme Court Judge? What to do, what to do?...$#!% the President for cutting into my vacation this way - doesn't he know how hard it is to oppose every move he makes when he pulls stuff like this?!"

[nopardons]

LOL

[paul51]

Congress had their chance to be relevant. Times up.

[MinuteGal]

Biden is warning GW not to make the recess appointment?

Whatcha, whatcha gonna do about it, Joe...bad boy, bad boy, whatcha gonna do?

FOX has confirmed it. Bolton is in.

Bush to Appoint Bolton

[Mad Mammoth]

If President Bush really wanted to paint the 'Rats in the Senate for the obstructionists that they are, he would produce a handy-dandy chart of ALL the Senators who WOULD vote for Bolton if given the chance for an up or down vote, and then at the presidential podium, pull slips out of a hat corresponding with each pro-Bolton Senator, and just call out their names, saying "Senator ______, says 'aye'...", over and over again until the majority total is established (60+ or whatever), and then look right into the camera and say "looks like the Obstructionist Democrats LOSE this vote, y'all have a nice day and congratulations to Ambassador Bolton"

Please, Mr. Rove, Mr. Bartlett, ANY WH staffer who lurks here?

Pass this thread along to the President, hmmmm? ;)
