Bill Frist Flip-Flops Over Bolton

"Before heading to lunch with Bush at the White House, Frist told the Associated Press that his role had 'been exhausted' in negotiating with Democrats [on the John Bolton nomination to be U.N. ambassador]."- Washington Post, 6/22/05

VERSUS

"A few hours later, after Bush said he does not want to throw in the towel, Frist said, 'We'll continue to work to get an up-or-down vote for John Bolton over the coming days, possibly weeks.'"- Washington Post, 6/22/05
