"Mr Bolton, a prominent critic of the UN, was appointed in August by
President George W Bush, who used special powers to overrule Democrats and a rogue Republican who had blocked his Senate confirmation."

confirmation."
Don't know if this is one of the few times where Bush actually acted like the president he should have been or weather the appointment of Bolton was made to clear the way for Clinton. Either way this information will fall on the deaf ears of the MSM as usual.

He also argued that sometimes the UN "can be an effective instrument of US foreign policy. There are times when it can serve US interests". He cited events in summer 1990 when the UN voted for war against Saddam to force him out of Kuwait before Congress passed such a resolution.That was 15 years ago and pre-Kofi/Clinton.

"Mr Bolton said of his three months in the job: "Have I enjoyed it? It's exactly what I expected." Asked what he enjoyed most at the UN, he replied: "It's a target-rich environment."
LOL!
