Dems can easily defuse the neocons' argument on Bolton...
at least in part.

A big part of the neocon's argument for giving Democrats the additional documents is that "They keep moving the goal posts", meaning they have provided documents only to be asked for more and "it will never end."

Why don't Biden and Dodd present Frist or the committee chairman with a statement indicating that if these documents they are now demanding are provided in their entirety (no blacked-out names)they will guarantee that Bolton will be released from committee for an up or down vote in the Senate, barring, of course, any revelation of criminal wrongdoing we've yet to see.

Let Frist say "no" to that.

1. I believe Biden did that yesterday.
Saying something to the effect of 'if we get all the documents we requested, we will give Bolton an up or down vote'
