There is a Santa Claus
Bolton nomination is dead and Rumsfeld is gone. Merry Christmas and welcome to a new era of international relations. Wooohoo! BTW, it is incredibly honorable that outgoing Senator Chafee, who lost his seat in Rhode Island won't use his last few months to slide this one through which he could have.
He blocked Bolton initially, so Bush had to recess appoint him and could have, since he's a lameduck, just slid it through. Apparently, Bush expected a payback from Chafee after he campaigned hard for him (which ironically is one of the reasons that this extremely moderate Republican senator actually lost).
