It Looks Like Bolton Will Go To New York Thursday, May 12, 2005

It looks like Bush's U.N. nominee will head to New York. John Bolton has been tied up in the Senate Foreign Relations committee for weeks now the committee looked into allegations of his being abusive to coworkers ans subordinates. He also has been charged with berating intelligence officials to make their intel match the administration efforts of the time. At one point, he even charged through a hotel in order to accost women who wouldn't endorse certain ideas a company he represented as a lawyer wanted her to do. He banged on her door and harassed her in other ways.

Colin Powell said he shouldn't be in the job. Richard Armitage said he shouldn't be in the job. Heck, Senator Voinovich said, "We can do better." But the Bolton will be voted out of committee with out its recommendation but on to the Senate floor.

Ridiculous

It sounds like Voinovich is giving a vote of no confidence to the administration and certainly over their nomination. But he wouldn't vote AGAINST him. He said he didn't like him but didn't have the cahoneys to stand up to the administration and do the right thing. When you believe in something or are against it, you do that and you say that and you ACT upon that. Don't be a yesman like some of the politicians. Vote your conscience and don't let the man out of committee. If the candidate the president selected isn't qualified or suited to the job, don't put him up for an up or down vote. IF American CAN do better, then force America TO do better. Don't give them the option here.

Be a man Voinovich. Be an American. Vote the Right Way. Vote for America to Do Better. Vote Against Bolton in Committee!
