I think former Ambassador Bolton is worthy of serious consideration and appointment. He served the country well while at the UN. To deny his consideration because of him working for former President Bush is in the category of ‘spiting your face....’
My top three requirements for any replacement nominee are someone who is (1) conservative, (2) competent, and (3) will piss the Democrats off so much that they will regret ever opposing the first nominee.
It is kinda’ funny, the guy that W. had to appoint to the position while Congress was in recess is all of a sudden a tool of . . . Congress.
