Bolton’s Ways Foil Goals, U.N. Envoys Say By WARREN HOGE

UNITED NATIONS, July 22 — In recent months, as one international crisis followed another, John R. Bolton has fulfilled the role of the United Nations’ most influential ambassador at full strength, firmly articulating the position of the United States government regarding Iran, North Korea and the Middle East.

His performance won over at least one crucial critic, Senator George V. Voinovich, Republican of Ohio. Mr. Voinovich’s opposition a year ago forced Mr. Bolton to take the job as a presidential recess appointment, an arrangement that expires at the end of this Congress in January.

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee has scheduled a hearing this Thursday on Mr. Bolton’s renomination, and a floor vote could come in September. Mr. Voinovich said he would vote for Mr. Bolton this time.

The Bush administration is not popular at the United Nations, where it is often perceived as disdainful of diplomacy, and its policies as heedless of the effects on others and single-minded in the willful assertion of American interests. By extension, then, many diplomats say they see Mr. Bolton as a stand-in for the arrogance of the administration itself.

But diplomats focus particularly on an area with less evidence of instructions from Washington and more of Mr. Bolton’s personal touch, the mission that he has described as his priority: overhauling the institution’s discredited management. Envoys say he has in fact endangered that effort by alienating traditional allies. They say he combatively asserts American leadership, contests procedures at the mannerly, rules-bound United Nations and then shrugs off the organization when it does not follow his lead.

Here is something, we can all do today to start eliminating the NY Slimes as a threat to our nation's security. We can do it at our computers and do it in less than 1 hour. Besides sending a severe warning to the NY Slimes and the mutual fund companies who buy NY Slimes stock, we will improve our precious investment capital being wasted on NY Slimes stock.

If a few thousand freepers did this simple action this week and a few thousand new freepers, friends and relatives each following week, we will have a terminal impact on the NY Slimes acts of sedition. Please send this how to your blogs, friends, relatives and email lists. This action will serve as a cannon shot across the bows fo the other Dinosaur Liberal Fish Wraps re sedition will not be tolerated any more.

TODAY, SELL/TRADE MUTUAL FUNDS OWNING NYT!!!:

 

Want to smash the NY Slimes?
Check your mutual funds to see if they own NYT, the NY Slimes Stock

 

 

How many of us own mutual funds which own NY Slimes stock and even worse have increased their NYT holdings this year.

NYT investment by a mutual fund company is a terrible investment re the dollar loss in Stock value the last 2 years. Those investments are an attempt to keep the NY Slimes afloat with our mutual fund $'s.

Now it is very evident that the NY Slimes is an agent and abettor of the al Qaeda Serial Killers. The Slimes is endangering the lives of our families, friends, innocent Americans and every warrior of ours.

Go to this link to see if your mutual fund owns NYT.

http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/invsub/ownership/ownership.asp

When the MS Money stock home page comes up, enter NYT into the search area and hit enter and the following screen will show up re ownership of the NY Slimes stock:

The New York Times Company: Ownership Information

  • Shares Outstanding 145.00 Mil

  • Institutional Ownership (%) 83.40

  • Top 10 Institutions (%) 58.60

  • Mutual Fund Ownership (%) 42.64

  • 5%/Insider Ownership (%) 7.77

  • Float (%)

Highlight the Mutual Fund Ownership and hit enter.

If thousands of Freepers, whose mutual funds own shares of NY Slimes did the following:

  1. Sell those mutual funds or trade them for funds not owning NYT.

  2. Send a letter to the fund managers and the CEO's of the mutual fund company telling them why you sold/transferred their mutual fund owning NY Slimes stock. Then demand to know why they are wasting your precious $'s on a treason/sedition company which is a terrible investment.

  3. Contact the SEC to investigate why this mutual fund and mutual fund company invested your $'s in one of the worse investments of the past 2 years. On 21 July 2006, NYT closed at the low for this decade. If your mutual fund owns, NYT, was the investment of yours and others a political bailout of the NY Slimes.

    The link below will take you to the SEC site and enable you to use the email form shown on this page. Or you can print the form, fill it out and mail it to the SEC.


    https://tts.sec.gov/acts-ics/do/complaint


  4. Send this how to re Mutual Funds with NYT stock to everyone on your email list for a wakeup call.

We might have a lot more impact selling/trading any mutual fund, which owns NYT, than trying to boycott companies which sell to the elite liberals of NYC and advertise in the NY Slimes.

So the NYT is onboard with UN staffers raping babies and stealing money meant for food and medicine for hungry and sick Iraqis.

That's pretty predictable.

Yes, here we go, just short of a vote on Bolton -- the libs CANNOT STAND a winner like Bolton in front of their idols, the U.N. -- the NYT, in its normal treasonous, anti-American mode, continues to become the dominant rag of our enemies, both internal and external to the United States.

The New York Slimes pining away for the halcyon days of yore, when "progressives" ruled, and "progress" toward the UN's one-world Marxist utopia went forward without challenge. Cry me a river you elitist traitors!

Clearly Voinovich's recent change of heart with respect to Bolton's suitability to be UN ambassador has alarmed the NY Times. No doubt this article is only the first of many counterattacks that will be lobbed into the battle zone by the comrades on the NYT's Central Committee. Look for more psyops and agitprop from the Times - they understand that Bolton is an important weapon in their enemies' hands in the insurgency that is being waged against their dreams of greater world socialism. While the Times may have been caught flat-footed by the Voinovich op-ed, look for them to regroup quickly and get back on the offensive...

Where were their manners and rules during the food for oil scandal. These elite animals took money that could have helped children and adults so they could feed their jet-set lifestyles.

The UN's goal is another half-century of peace "process". Never mind that it doesn't work, never has, and never will, it's that almighty god Process that matters most.

If the UN had been around to oversee WW II, we'd still be fighting it. But, by gosh, we'd have our %$@#*&+ process!

Of what value are such "allies" who would be offended by straight talk? Perhaps those who are on the take and would like to continue to do so.

"The Bush administration is not popular at the United Nations, where it is often perceived as disdainful of diplomacy, and its policies as heedless of the effects on others and single-minded in the willful assertion of American interests."

Let me rewrite this:

America is not popular (as if being popular was really important) anywhere in the world where rational thought and pragmatism co-exist.

Failed regimes and their philosophies hate America and want to blame the failure of their bankrupt socialist and communist programs and everything else on George Bush because they have nothing else to make up for their failures and misery that they themselves have created.

It's terrible and really mean for America to stick up for their own interests. We should take our ball and go home. We think they should just cave in to our stupid ideas so they can be as miserable as we are.

John Bolton is too smart, articulate and patriotic to America and freedom and he doesn't kowtow to all the phony PC BS that we like to continually spout and we hate him for not kissing our corrupt, commie, fascist, sissy, cowardly ugly, dirty, Islamofascist butts.

That's what they really mean.

Dear Warren Hoge,

You are obviously a whiny snivelling metrosexual girlie-man..... why on earth do you think that any REAL American would trust you or the NY Slimes to judge what is in our national interest? Why don't you stop writing editorial opinion columns masquerading as news reporting?

Mr. Bolton is the right man, in the right place, at the right time! I so admire his straightforwardness.

He calls them like he sees them...:)

A bull in a china shop. Bolton is Bush's counterpoint to a useless UN.

You are welcome.

The stats on ownership indicate that the NYT/NYSLIMES would have a very hard time existing w/o Mutual Fund ownership.
