Good!

We need to have more “Scalia’s”in the Supreme Court, stay OUT of “human rights” wars, and STOP islam and our insane enemy North Korea!!!!

Why can’t we work with China and South Korea to trade food for bombs in North Korea? I have Korean friends who tell me that North and South Koreans are really the same people—even from the same families.

But I suppose that one cannot deal rationally with the insane!

I think you’re right. Sorry. Too much cold medication today. I’ll stay off the posting for a bit.

Bolton exposed himself as a neo-con hack in the late 1990s when he began to clamor publicly for the Clinton administration to launch a military campaign against Serbia on behalf of the radical Islamic separatists in Kosovo.

Trump cannot "drain the swamp" in Washington if he appoints @ssholes like this who have been living in the oozing stench for 30+ years.

Bolton sucked at his last job. I hope this is just a rumor.

Why did he fail miserably as UN ambassador? His job was to shut the place down. Instead he made it stronger and anti-American.

Newt’s mouth often moves before his brain. If Trump leaves him out of the power structure, fine by me.

Not sure about Bolton’s wife killed on 9/11 but Barbara Olsen, the wife of Theodore Olsen (Solicitor General under W) died in the plane that hit the Pentagon.

Bolton is not a neo-con. He is a goldwater conservative and trusted member of Reagan’s justice department who was chosen to guide Antonin Scalia’s appointment through confirmation process.

John Bolton was one of the directors of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC). If that doesn't make him a "neo-con," then the term "neo-con" has no meaning.

Pardon my French, but this guy is a New World Order jerkoff through-and-through.

Are you guys confusing Bolton with someone else? He criticized the bombing of Serbia. THis is a quotation:

"We ought to be concerned about this so-called right of humanitarian intervention—a right of intervention that is just a gleam in one beholder’s eye but looks like flat-out aggression to somebody else. What we did was bomb innocent civilian Serbs into the ground in order that the Albanians can come back and ethnically cleanse the Serbs’ relatives out of what’s left of Kosovo."

Bolton is a great choice, not a neo-con, hated by liberals, and rock solid on every issue I can think of.

I know it’s not popular here but I like Bolton and think this is a great appointment. Tough, straight-talker, a smart guy with all the right enemies and a superb resume.


Bolton is popular except among the day dreaming Putin lover crowd.

lol. you see the term “neocon” on FR more often than on DU these days . . . well, if DU was up, that is.


Just for a bit longer. The campaign is over. Time for President Trump to govern. The Putin lovers and checker playing isolationists are being sent to the kiddie table where they belong.

Newt has said several times that he will have conversations with Trump in an advisory capacity. Nothing official.

I know. Some of the suggestions here have nothing to do with pegging the roles and responsibilities to the individual’s credentials and qualifications.

Yup. Those are my predictions as well. They both have the proper credentials for those assignments.
