State Department Offers Bolton Material
State Department Offers Bolton Material

By BARRY SCHWEID, AP Diplomatic Writer 16 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - At the State Department's urging, Senate Democrats narrowed their request for internal government documents bearing on John R. Bolton's fitness to be the United States' ambassador to the
United Nations.

Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee have threatened to force a delay in the panel's planned Thursday vote on Bolton unless they get the information they want. They planned a private strategy session Tuesday and were hoping to receive more material from the State Department later in the day, said Norm Kurz, a spokesman for the committee's senior Democrat, Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware.

The movement on the documents could be a sign that the two sides were steering away from a new clash that would further delay the committee's vote, though Democrats said they had received nothing by early afternoon.

Edited on Tue May-10-05 12:52 PM by flordehinojos
they say they want in the first placce.

a revolution begins the minute ass kissing stops and people start saying, i am not going to be pushed around. i am standing on my ground and on my right.

a revolution starts when people say,i said i wantes XYZ documents on bolton without redaction by a date certain.

i have not gotten what i asked for, when i asked for it, and how i asked for it.

you are not getting a vote on bolton thursday.

a revolution starts when democrats say, you want us to do "X"? then you have to do "Y" so that we can do our part.

No more bushit.
no more marabuntas.
no more abuses.
no more road rammings.

no more bullying.

democrats have to find the GLADIATORS FOR GOOD, TRUTH AND DEMOCRADY side inside of them, or they can just erase themselves from the U.S.A senate and from the rest of the political map.
