This is exactly what the dems want. This way they get to threaten Bolton's job if he's too harsh with the UN, and they also get to make recess appointments more standard fare.

Oh, thanks for that info, Mo. I'm glad to hear it.
Maybe a few thousand angry e-mails and phone calls shook some sense into him.

Go with the recess apointment. Hopefully it will infuriate the dems enough that the compromise on the judges nominations will collapse and eventually trigger the nuclear option. Then maybe the Republicans in the Senate will finally stand up on their hind legs and begin to run the Senate like they have a majority there

I'm hearing that the votes aren't there for cloture. Is that right, as far as you know?

Bush said at a news conference with European Union leaders. "Well, put him in. If they're interested in reforming the United Nations, they ought to approve John Bolton." Well, that's why your Senate puke opposition don't want him.

Whats the rush to send anyone to the UN? Why not use a different tactic:you could state it like this: "Since the senate is unwilling to send an agent for change to the UN our best course of action is to leave the ambassadorship to the UN open. The UN is a corrupt body that has as one of its goals the diminution of the sovereignty of all member nations and those of the G8 in particular. As proponents of free and democratic society's everywhere it is not in the US' interest to participate in these misguided and dangerous endeavors. When the Senate decides to send a bold and effective leader who can help steer the UN back to some level of ethical behavior and relevance as a world body or until the UN decides to clean its own house this administration has no interest in sending a representative to that body and will not be bound by any future resolutions of same." It sounds like a perfect solution to me, what do you think?
