RESPONSE: Mario have you been slumbering? It is your Republicans who cannot endorse Bolton; read some more:- http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,11069-1577549,00.html Republican blow to Bush UN nominee By Chris Johnston, Times Online President Bush was dealt a blow by senators from his own party last night when they asked for a delay to the ratification vote on John Bolton, the Republican nominee for UN ambassador, because of new abuse allegations. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which has a Republican majority, had been expected to approve Mr Bolton's nomination. But it decided to delay the vote until next month after Senator George Voinovich of Ohio stunned fellow Republicans on the committee. "I've heard enough today that I don't feel comfortable about voting for Mr Bolton today," he told them................ ........................Some accusers have approached the committee independently. Melody Townsel, a Dallas businesswoman, claimed that an angry Mr Bolton chased her through a Russian hotel and threw objects at her during a conference a decade ago. In a letter, she said he was "genuinely behaving like a madman. I eventually retreated to my hotel room and stayed there. Mr Bolton then routinely visited me to pound on the door and shout threats." After the meeting, Senator Voinovich said he had changed his mind after an impassioned critique from Senator Christopher Dodd, a Connecticut Democrat. "The passion on the other side on this, I don't think, is political," he said. "I think they raised some legitimate issues. I think we ought to find out what they are, I think we ought to get the information, get a chance to have (the allegations) rebutted," he said. Two other Republicans also opposed voting yesterday: Senator Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island, who had previously expressed doubts and Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, who gave warning that he may not support Mr Bolton's nomination if it did move to the full Senate. "The dynamic has changed. A lot of reservations surfaced today. It's a new day," Senator Chafee said................. Comment; Mario you should take a bow and gracefully exit from posting propaganda on this forum. No doubt, you will now inform us that the Times is a rubbish Newspaper! All we need is a mad man at the helm and another clout in the U.N., as well as a lackey on Goanet! I would have let this matter go 'where ignorance is bliss tis folly to be wise' but I feel it is my duty and obligation to wisen you up, as well as any reader who might believe your propaganda; you are not yet beyond redemption! Cheers. Gabe Menezes. London England.
