Can Bolton be hired now since there is an "on going investigation" going

[southernleftylady]

on or not?

[shraby]

1. Not till the WH turns over the papers

the Senate wants. Those papers will sink him.

[mzteris]

2. so obviously

the WH KNEW - or else they would have released the Bolton papers. Can they be gotten for obstruction over that?

3. Frankin was implying on Friday that he can't as long as he is

involved in an on going investigation. In addition, the democrats said they would NOT allow it until all requested documents had been turned over


There must be some pretty damning information if the crime family won't turn it over

[joemurphy]

4. I guess Bush could theoretically go through with a recess

appointment without turning the papers over. The fact that there's an investigation on hasn't stopped them going forward with Karen Hughes' ambassadorship.

6. As I understand it is NOT the investigation itself

but because bolton may actually be involved in the Plame affair that is why

[Vinca]

5. Do you think something as insignificant as an investigation

will stop King George? Look for a recess appointment in August. I'm surprised he didn't do it over the July 4th holiday.

7. I think that someone should bring up the fact that he "might"

involved in the sandal.. At least get it into the record so that if he does get confirmed, it will be with a cloud of true suspicion:)
