DID HILL KILL THE ARMENIA BILL?
Hot Air, MD
Oct 17 2007
Now we hear a dozen lawmakers have changed their mind on the resolution
in the past 24 hours. Of the three Democrats mentioned as flipping
this morning – Reps. Allen Boyd of Florida, Jane Harman of California,
and Mike Ross of Arkansas – two (Harman, Ross) have endorsed Hillary.
It does make sense: Would you want to start your term in the White
House with a major NATO ally spitting mad at the US?
I’m sure the Democrats who were all set to vote on this bill will
still get a chance to annoy another vital ally eventually. Hey look,
Japan’s cabinet has approved extending its naval mission in support
of the war in Afghanistan. Let’s draft a resolution condemning them
for the 17th century suppression of Christianity.
