I hope Voinovich is watching his back
sen. voinovich has quickly become something of a hero in my book cuz i have a strong suspicion that the pressures he's under must be intense... when you come out and say stuff like this when the cheney/bush/rove axis of evil is so strongly committed to pushing something, it's pretty gutsy... i just hope he doesn't end up wearing a pair of custom-designed rove concrete overshoes...
[It] is my concern that John Bolton's nomination sends a negative message to the world community and contradicts the President's efforts. In these dangerous times, we cannot afford to put at risk our nation's ability to successfully wage and win the war on terror with a controversial and ineffective Ambassador to the United Nations.
strong words but he's doing what he oughta be doing - putting the interests of the nation ahead of party interests and speaking from his convictions... that's what he was elected for, after all... unfortunately, that's not something valued by buschco...
The White House remains strongly in favor of Mr. Bolton's nomination, and it is unusual for a Republican to break ranks so publicly with President Bush. Submit To Propeller
