What's REALLY holding up Bolton? Bush won't give Senate needed documents

[blm]

to have that vote.

Blame Bush for his failure to turn over needed documents in a timely manner.

Why doesn't Bush turn over the documents so we can have the vote on Bolton?

Get it? It's Bush's fault.

1. "The Bush White House is OBSTRUCTING the Senate!"

That's a quote you'll see very rarely -- vastly outnumbered in the media by claims of "Democrat Obstructionists."

4. PERFECT, TahitiNut.....send it to the DNC or Biden's office.

Biden is the one who gets the airtime on Bolton.

2. Mate - Checkmate

You're not watching the same corporate media I am. The GOOP has already framed this as "Democrat Obstructionism"...trying to use this shell game to defuse the embarassment over the Filibuster bust and the infighting that's going on in the Repugnican party.

This regime believes it's a branch that's above any form of scrutiny. It can do as it pleases as it has majorities in control of the major government levers and don't have to be accountable. If anything, this "macho" is what their supporters expect. They are being obstinate as their show of strength and blaming the Democrats as the cause.

Of course this isn't the case as Bolton could have been nominated over the 41 or 45 Democrats by that simple "up or down" vote. The problem is Democrats will never be fully satified with what this regime sends down (and we know whatever is sent will be redacted like crazy) and won't change any minds on the Repugnican side.

Let's just get some popcorn :popcorn: and watch the Senate Repugnicans continue to beat up on their own...give them a helping hand where needed.

5. Amazing isn't it?

Makes you wonder who up there picked Bolton in the first place. There's been only a slight effort by the White House to defend his nomination.

And, of course, Bush is to blame. Everything he touches goes belly up.

All together now: Why won't they release the documents? What are they hiding?

9. Keep the Dems occupied while they plan their water wars?

I'll believe anything from this extraordinarily cynical group of thugs.

7. Oh, I know. Just like Iraqgate (c1991)

I'm just spreading the more truthful way of framing the current battle.
