What is this crap? "Reform"?
How har is it to understand the simple and often repeated slogan:

GET THE US OUT OF THE UN AND THE UN OUT OF THE US!

Bush should have gone on the offensive (stating the above phrase) after Oil For Food was discovered.

"Are you saying that Senate Democrats are opposing Bolton because they oppose U.N. reform?" a reporter asked

and just why should a reporter be asking this rather than having been reporting it for weeks?

could it be the MSM is also for the UN - nah. move on

Just yesterday the Tehran Times, yep, a newspaper in the capitol of Iran, published an editorial against John Bolton. That paper, whose keen interest in the longterm benefit of the United States is self-evident, called Bolton "the wrong man at the wrong time."

Any member of the Senate who does not ask him/herself whether it is wise to be on the same side of an issue as the mad mullahs in Iran, is a fool. I assume that the White House has made copies of the Iranian counter-endorsement of Bolton available to all members of the Committee and the Senate.

It's going to be close, but I hope Frist has the votes. But given a choice between losing this vote and losing a judicial vote, the latter is more important.

"Are you saying that Senate Democrats are opposing Bolton because they oppose U.N. reform?" a reporter asked.

Anyone who believes that Bolton can be an agent for reform at the UN is fooling themselves. His reputation preceeds him and there isn't anyone there who is going to accept his leadership on anything. It would be as if France announced that they were going to appointing Jacque Chirac ambassador to the US as an agent of change and reform in our country.

There is an editorial on this subject on Opinion Journal today. They say that it goes a lot further than just the UN, it involves the US foreign policy. Bolton went against all the accepted Democrat foreign policies that would have advanced the Democrat agenda of one world socialist government. He made efforts to roust the liberal career diplomats, or at least put limits on their policy of ignoring the administrations foreign policy decisions and continuing on with their own liberal agenda. The left sees Bolton as end of business as usual in the State Dept and they are very frightened that they are losing their next to last strong hold (they still have the courts).
