Bolton blocked again, but Bush might pull a fast-one ...

[Bravo411]

Democrats have again blocked Bolton's nomination to the U.N. in a vote that was just six short of going to a final vote.

The White House has continually refused to hand over documents that they have requested, some of which are classified, in order to evaluate whether Bolton is the man for the job.

Bush has stated that, “I think it’s time for the Senate to give him an up-or-down vote. Now.” He has not said if he will circumvent the Senate and appoint Bolton, but he has not ruled it out either.

Given Bush's child-like determination to get his way, and his complete disregard for the due process and the Democrat Minority, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if he decides to pull a fast-one and make Bolton a temporary appointment to the U.N., regardless of the concerns in the Legislative Branch.

1. What's the point of rules if a president is allowed to ignore them? n/t

2. He will not be liked, trusted, or respected at the U.N.

He has too much garbage for too long. He's a very poor choice as a diplomat and W would be a fool to appoint him, so as Condi said "we'll see".

Look at the MSNBC online poll.

3. Not a question of might

More a question of when. What Chimp wants Chimp get. Got it

[renoray]

5. He'll get him

and he will look like a total ass doing it. He will look weak and selfish. Bolton is not a popular nomination now, and people will see the nomination as an abuse of power by the lame duck. People will recognize that if Bolton was a good candidate, Bush wouldn't have to use a loophole.

6. I agree.

This will make Chimpy's poll numbers go down into the sixth subbasement.

8. So what

He wont be the President again unless he declare martial law.

Right now he is just putting all the pieces in place. Just like a chess game. All this placement resignation and new appointments all over is just moving chess pieces into position.

Bush is dispensable. Its the cartel that is important and all this is to ensure that it is still a power base.

WHO IS THE PUPPETMASTER?

7. I dont think he cares

He will just say I win.....like

Now that you guys agreed with me that he is the right candiate it is time to do the right thing and that is to back him all the way on what need to be done to destroy .... oops I mean reform UN .... was a slip of there was actually saying what l was thinking .
