Biden tearing Exec branch & State Dept a new one on lack of cooperation...
"Who died and made them boss?"

"Unprecedented lack of cooperation"

"We expected this access, all access."

1. Go, Biden!
I wish he'd fight all the time instead of rolling over to the repugs.

6. He's not a rollover, he's a moderate.
He actually thinks that sometimes they're right.

2. "Someone tell us why this information can not be provided"
"Our constitutional role is being challenged"

"The failure of this administration not to provide this information has no constitutional right to decide what the senate needs to fulfill its constitutional obligation"

11. Man that felt good
Listening to Joe Biden throw down the gauntlet on the administration. No President has the right to have his nominee appointed.

12. Oh yeah- raising immortal hell as he backs up to the stump and lifts
his tail.

While enjoy his strong rhetoric (always do), fact is that he didn't try to postpone today's hearing pending receipt of the info State refused to submit.

Yeah, he's bitching about the "not relevant" comments. But talk, even when entertaining, is cheap.

16. Most frustrating part about being a Liberal (at least for me, anyway)
Edited on Thu May-12-05 11:10 AM by comsymp
That friggin' eternal optimism - believing that the Good Guys will ultimately win....

So of course I'm eager to believe that there may be some surprises today.

However, unless the surprises include the proverbial dead girl or live boy (and possibly even if they do), Bolton will be reported out 10-8. Favorably, unfavorably, without recommendation - doesn't matter. Say hello to the new UN Ambassador.
