Huuum,did they flip flop or did they realize that it was NOT going to fly?

OR

Did I miss a BIG event?

1. not over the holiday..after senate session is over for summer break.

2. Not holiday, August recess.

Congress recesses for the month of August. Presidents can make "recess appointments" while Congress is not in session. The appointee still has to be confirmed by Congress after a certain period of time. (90 days? 60 days? I forget what the specified time period is.)

Anyway, a "recess appointment" for Bolton is what is being speculated about. Since it's still July, the August recess hasn't happened yet.

3. Thanks for the clarification

Let's just hope that he will be on the way to jail by then.

I would love to see a representative from each of the 3rd world countries escorting Bolton to the Hague.

With each passing day, they get BOLDER!

This maddness has got to stop. Wake Up America before it's too late.

4. Well maybe if we are REALLY REALLY lucky ............

Bolton will get handed a felony indictment for, say, conspiracy by Fitzgerald before Bush can appoint him.

A girl can dream, right?
