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..

Lugar is really telling it the way it is. You had so many chances to debate this nomination, but you're always delaying the committee hearings so too bad.

I should applaud Lugar's cool under fire, but frankly, I wish he'd do gorilla stomps on Biden, slap Boxer, and demand the vote be taken NOW!

Sooooooooooooooooooooo Boxer has had to out herself as the one who prevented the morning session, AFTER the other senators declared it wasn't anyone on the committee.

Kerry was trying to refer to Carl Ford's testimony, and he said Karl Rove instead. The entire committee was cracking up laughing.

Kerry apologized profusely for his Rovian slip.

What the hell happened to Boxer?

She looks markedly worse than ever...her makeup is the work of a legally blind mortician. WTF?

I'm seeing the same thing you're seeing.

OMG, are we going to hear all these unsubstantiated rumors from the floor of the Senate?
