Amazing...! Bolton still alive but in ICU...

Democrats forced the Senate on Thursday evening to postpone a vote on John R. Bolton as ambassador to the United Nations, demanding that the White House first hand over classified information about Mr. Bolton's conduct that it has refused for weeks to provide. The move put off [any decison on the nomination] until at least June 7.

i missed this, what with being out in the sticks without internet or tv, but i can only imagine the high drama over this high-stakes position... steve clemons is a happy man...

This is a victory...another one. The media has been CONSTANTLY WRONG.

Ok...I am going for a drink. There is still room for faith in American democracy, the rights of the minority, and standing by principle.

i'm pretty happy myself... regardless of what happens from here, it's clear that bushco can no longer sit content with cramming abusive, arrogant, party-loyal-above-all-else ideologues down the throats of the american people... thanks to the conscience of some of our elected representatives in the senate, this loose cannon might actually be kept from walking the halls of the u.n. wreaking his particular brand of destruction...
