Strap-On to Bolt-On: How Bush screwed the Senate by appointing John Bolton as UN chief

Welcome to the Misanthrope's Club, Mr. Bolton. And if the Senate gives you any trouble, remember my words: "Bring 'em on."


President George Bush shows his impetuous Georgie Porgie side by appointing John Bolton as UN envoy on the first day of the Senate's summer recess. You just know this is right in character for Georgie Porgie, who probably threw beer bashes at the George Herbert Walker Bush ranch the minute mommy and daddy got out of earshot. Just like an incorrigible little kid - only trustworthy if he's being watched every second.
