Bolton Recess Appointment Likely

Unfortunately, the prediction that I made here last month looks to be coming true. As I said back then, King George will force Bolton on the world whether it is the correct thing to do or not. The jerk will lie, cheat or anything he has to do to get his own way. Reuters is reporting Two U.S. officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said it was Bush's intent to make a recess appointment. An announcement could come as early as Monday Sen. Joseph Biden (D-DE)a critic of Bolton, warned the White House "A recess appointment is not in the interest of the country. Mr. Bolton does not have the full confidence of the Senate. Sending him to the U.N. without the Senate's approval would send a mixed message to friend and foe alike." Of course King George's "me right - you always wrong" attitude will make that warning from Biden fall on deaf ears. I have to wonder now however, if this just might anger the Dems in the Senate to use the fillibuster over the nomination of John Roberts when his nomination to the SCOTUS comes up for vote. A recess appointment, along with all the negatives coming to light about Roberts, look like the gathering of a "perfect storm". Batten down the hatches my friends, come September we are in for a bumpy ride.
