Frist: Will He? Won't He?

So the Dems have blocked the Bolton vote and Frist at first was like "I won't fight it. I won't push for the vote. If the President feels he wants to got for it, that's his decision" Well a few hours later, it appears he got sent to the principal's office because he comes out of a meeting with the President and suddenly he's like "I WILL push for a vote on Bolton, darn tootin!"...

IN THE MEANTIME...there's a full moon people and it's offically the summer solstice so things are a little crazy...
Bush apparently went out to defend his Iraq strategery yesterday to members of the EU..according to wonkette this quote was included (please see accompanying photo and commentary at wonkette): "I think about Iraq every day. Every single day, because I understand we have troops in harm's way." *but, dude, what about all that "progress"?*

One should also go to wonkette for the blip on Young Republicans trying to get other young republicans to enlist...as long as it isn't them...

And yesterday, Rep. Hostettler apparently shut down business on the House Floor, not for anything decent like "margarita Mondays", nooo, he decided to say, as they were debating an Air Force bill that would keep abusive religious sermonizing in check (thanks to an incident with a particularly zealous Air Force officer), that Democrats are Anti-Christian and essentially have nothing better to do than to "demonize" Christians (SATANIC SECULAR BIBLE BURNING BASTARDS!!!). A Democratic Rep said "Um, those statements should be taken down" which I have learned essentially is like getting written up...

In the latest corruption file: a senior member of the House Appropriations Committee apparently has been appropriating a lobbyist's really nice yacht...among other things...

AND...did you know that the PBS monitor that Kenneth Tomlinson hired actually worked for conservative groups (gasp!...yeah that's a shocker)

Just a loopy time we live in...so KEEP E-MAILING!!! E-mail, call, fax, write your friends and family, the press and your Congressfolk and let them know that you are paying attention! and pass it on, pass it on, pass it on!

Peace --Alex
