Bolton to Kucinich on Sy Hersh's Piece: "I Don't Have Time To Read Much Fiction" (VIDEO)
Expose The Left ^ | 5/2/2006

Posted on 05/02/2006 8:26:18 PM PDT by ianschwartz

US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton testified before the House subcommittee on international relations today and got in a little argument with Rep. Dennis Kucinich. Rep. Kucinich asked John Bolton about Sy Hersh's "New Yorker" article on Iran, to which Bolton said he didn't read it because he doesn't have time to read "fiction":

KUCINICH: Have you ever heard of that report?

BOLTON: I'd never heard of the report, I never read the article, nor do I intend to.

KUCINICH: Do you have any interest as to whether or not -- as the U.S. Ambassador, you don’t have any interest as to whether or not U.S. Marines are actually operating in Iran right now?

BOLTON: I said I had not heard of the report and I didn't intend to read the article in "The New Yorker."

KUCINICH: If I gave you this article right now, walked it over, would you look at it?

BOLTON: I don't think so, honestly, Congressman, because I don't have time to read much fiction.

KUCINICH: We know that U.S. Troops are in Iran. How does this affect U.N. Negotiations?

BOLTON: Congressman, you know more than I do, that's all I can say.

It's nice to know Kookoonich and the NYslimes are telling the world and the Iranians that we have Marines COVERTLY in Iran. Maybe they'll the Iranians exactly where these Marines are, so the Iranians can tell the world what they "have done" to these Marines. The demoflops and nyslimes are very patriatotic and LOVE America. yah!

No.

The 'pig-man' was a hospital patient in a Seinfeld episode. Kramer thought he was some kind of 'government experiment'.

"Bolton for President!"

Exactly what I've been thinking. Or even Press Secretary for a day. I'd love to see him take on Helen Thomas just once and verbally b!tch-slap her in to the middle of next week.

That bit of exchange was priceless! Bolton wasted no time on these fools, just cut them off at the knees.
