AP
State Dept. Now Says Bolton Interviewed

By MARK SHERMAN, Associated Press Writer 9 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - John Bolton,
President Bush's nominee for U.N. ambassador, mistakenly told Congress he had not been interviewed or testified in any investigation over the past five years, the State Department said Thursday.


Bolton was interviewed by the State Department inspector general in 2003 as part of a joint investigation with the
Central Intelligence Agency into prewar Iraqi attempts to buy nuclear materials from Niger, State Department spokesman Noel Clay said.

The admission came hours after another State Department official said Bolton had correctly answered a Senate questionnaire when he wrote that he has not testified to a grand jury or been interviewed by investigators in any inquiry over the past five years.

The reversal followed persistent Democratic attempts to question Bolton's veracity just days before Bush may use his authority to make him
United Nations ambassador after Congress adjourns for its summer recess. For months, Democrats have prevented the Senate from confirming the fiery conservative to the post.

"It seems unusual that Mr. Bolton would not remember his involvement in such a serious matter," said Sen. Joseph Biden (news, bio, voting record), D-Del., the senior Democrat on the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee. "In my mind, this raises more questions that need to be answered. I hope President Bush will not make the mistake of recess appointing Mr. Bolton."

1. He Hopes.....

Get a clue Biden. The appointment is coming, and you know it is. Then you can cry a bit, and say how your "friends" on the other side of the aisle are wrong for doing it, and how Shrub is wrong for doing this....and it won't matter, because you're irrelevant, and you know it.

[AuntPatsy]

2. Obviously he has a clue, and it should matter, and not only he hopes..

But everyone here does as well as do most Americans who are tired of the lies and deceit that seemingly have no ending coming from this administrations inner circles...

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

4. Shrub Will Still Appoint Him n/t

[Walt Starr]

3. BIDEN JUST DOUBLE DOG DARED THE BLIVET!

Bush will Recess Appoint Bolton.

Then Bolton will be charged with perjury.

[AuntPatsy]

6. Exactly, some don't seemingly get the long range picture...

[fooj]

29. Yep. Ralphie would be proud!

:patriot:

[annabanana]

5. Gawd, that's rich...

(It's EASY to forget being interviewed by a joint investigation of the State Department inspector general and the CIA.... I myself might forget something as trivial as that.... oh, two, three times a week.)

Sweet Mother of Pearl!!...

[mike_c]

7. Bush will thumb his nose at anyone who opposes his feifdom....

It won't make any difference if Bolton is revealed as a Satanist who bites the heads from live kittens-- Bush will NEVER admit to having made any mistakes, so he'll simply appoint whomever he pleases, fuck you very much.

[Stephanie]

8. That's their Achilles heel - that's what will ruin them

Their hubris, their belligerance, their refusal to ever admit they were wrong.

[fooj]

30. Their gaudy arrogance...

:grr:

[tavalon]

22. Interesting that you would choose kittens

Frist vivesected live kittens gotten illegally from shelters and it doesn't appear to have hurt his career. These people disgust me.

[mike_c]

26. that is utterly repulsive....

I had heard Frist referred to as a "cat-killer" before, but I attributed this to some possibly callus remark he might have made about his medical training. I hadn't heard the vivisection story. I googled it after reading your post. I'm not in the habit of wishing that people come to harm, but I make exceptions for those who are deliberately cruel to animals. I hope that pig bastard dies screaming.

[tavalon]

27. I could agree with you on that one

But I hated Frist long before I found out about the cats. The cats were what made me realize he was a sociopath.

Yep, I wish for a him a long, leisurely, very painful death. Followed by Hell.

[dave502d]

9. WTF, they always forget or it was a mistake.

Do you think you could used them lines on anything.
Think about it, I am in court for speeding and i tell the court
i forgot or it was a mistake.

[Cocoa]

10. Bolton, the "fiery conservative"

that cracks me up for some reason.

[jillan]

11. I am the walrus . . .

[fooj]

31. His eyes are empty. Without soul.

:scared:

[TaleWgnDg]

12. Well, so? Bolton will get a "recess appointment" in August, period.

.

[Cocoa]

13. yes he will

but now Bush is going to be appointing an obvious liar.

[TaleWgnDg]

17. "Liar," you say? And, THAT makes a difference? Since when?

"Liar," you say? And, that makes a difference? Since when?

Don't we all wish that lying and other misrepresentations of fact would be impeachable offenses during this administration. After all, this administration's lying-in-yer-face is done while doing the job of president, not in the private life of a president re oral sex.

I guess it depends upon who may be doing the impeaching and who is in power in the Oval Office. Yup. The self-righteous religion-into-law zealots during the Clinton Administration but not when it's their guy in the Oval Office. He gets to "walk." The damn hypocrites!

14. Recommended and kicked.

[jillan]

15. Thanks!

What is your picture suppose to be?
I can't figure it out:P

[orleans]

16. great story--

and what an embarrassment it will be when he's the head of the U.N. and gets charged with perjury.

[RSchewe]

18. Oooof! I heard David Schuster backing off the MSNBC report...

earlier. I guess it was true after all. They were sticking by it then backed down today during Hardball. Now AP blows the doors off this baby.

19. A fancy French Kick

For a guy who would -- and does -- personify MISGUIDED ZEALOT in every culture known to human beings throughout the long trail of history, recorded and otherwise.

[BuyingThyme]

20. I love how this fuck-face, MARK SHERMAN, opens by concluding that

a mistake has been made.

[bunny planet]

21. Bush will appoint him anyway and then he'll give us the finger.

Hopefully, the perjury charge against Bolton will happen anyway too.

[jillan]

25. lol! n/t

[Stevendsmith]

23. Is anyone in this admin ever truly "busted"?

No.

[FreedomAngel82]

24. Of course Bush will still get Bolton in

Obviously Bolton is a Bush loyalist and has a job to do with the UN (destroy it). If Biden thinks Bush wouldn't then he really is gulliable.

[progressoid]

28. Mistakenly??? That's fukin rich.

Ain't no way that was a mistake. It was deliberate.

[fooj]

32. Hey everyone...we've got to figure out how to put a stop to this.

This is crazy. Beyond crazy. Lying rat bastards. Evil. Maniacal.

IMO, they are absolutely terrifying...:scared:

They cannot shatter the hopes
cannot conquer the spirit
cannot silence the courage
cannot invade the soul.

They don't speak truth. Truth is our most valuable weapon.

Peace.:patriot:
