5. After the last vote for cloture, Frist said he'd hold off on trying again.
Then he had lunch with Bush and said he would bring it out again, but never did. No laying this shit on the Dems. WH stonewalled on requested doc. and Bolton lied to the committee!

6. The Republicans seem to forget:
The Republicans seem to forget that Democrats AND Republicans have both come out against Bolton so it's not exactly some liberal conspiracy against Bush.

I hate the the "liberal media" lets people like this continue to tell this lie.
