Good morning all. Senate convenes at 9:30 am this morning, to vote on the nomination of Priscilla Owen. I've started the thread early, as I have to leave for a few hours, but also to give us a place to start commenting early on the events of yesterday....

Around here it's always stood for "Bump To The Top", not "boot". Many times people will just say bump, which means the same thing. To bump the thread to the top of the latest post list so others will see it and read it.

boot does mean the same thing but I have never seen it put that way. Just in the interest of accuracy. No big deal.

Says, "We can do better."

Don't know which side's time he on. Pubs I guess.

I reiterate, are any of their MODERATES ever allowed to speak?

Earlier, someone said it would be Republican time. Doesn't make any sense to me.

Yes, he said "John Hamilton" and was later corrected by one of his aides.

Geez...he just agreed with Biden that we should have a secret vote on Bolton.

"He would not get 50 votes."

Secret vote so that people who put you in office can't see how you voted? This guy digs a bigger hole for himself every time he talks on Bolton.

He is SHOCKED by the attitudes of people overseas? Where has this guy been since 9/11?

Voinovich seems to think we owe the UN an apology or pass of some kind. His kind of thinking got us N Korea's mess.
Confirm Bolton now!
