1. I don't think so...you only get one bite at the cookie

He has a year to be confirmed. Otherwise, he's dead.

2. I do not believe so....

A person can only, from my understanding, receive one recess appointment...

4. This also begs the question, how long can they keep postponing

the confirmation process?

5. No. (nt)

6. Yes. But they can't keep paying him -- kinda shameful to have to . . .

. . work for free because We the People are so opposed to him that not even the fascists and fascist dupes in Congress can get him hired.

7. Yes he can, but Bolton won't receive a salary.

8. Oh, Bolton will get money alright. It just won't show up on the q

record, that's all.

9. You are right

He will get salary from Halliburton, which in turn will get extra no-bid contracts.
