Please contact your Senators and let them know how important it is in this time in history to have John Bolton representing the United States in the United Nations.

[KarlInOhio]

I'll send Voinovich a box of Kleenex.

[mware]

Get out the popcorn, this is such a winner for the conservatives.

I was listening to Religion On The Line (WABC Radio) yesterday and the rabbi had nothing but praise for John Bolton. BTW the rabbi was a past president of the Board of Rabbi's for NYC.

[ichabod1]

Voingy says he likes him now, I think.

[cardinal4]

Voinivich says he will vote for him..

[xjcsa]

Wow - read that list of Senators. It's almost like they intentionally put all the dumbest senators on the Foreign Relations Committee (with apologies to the one or two decent ones on the list).

[Ooh-Ah]

See: Why I'll Vote for Bolton -- Voinovich!!!!

[EQAndyBuzz]

Great, another bloodbath.

Would love to see the RATS filibuster this one.

[monkapotamus]

[You Dirty Rats]

Good to see that George has come around on this.

Score one more for that lame duck President, George W. Bush. Great Strategery by GWB to get this hugh and series appointment confirmed at last.

[You Dirty Rats]

This is quite a collection of half-wits.

On second thought, that is too generous to Dodd, Box-O-Rox, Kerry, and some of the other lamebrains who could fairly be described as witless.

[johnny7]

...or panty shields

[mware]

I dont care for chaffee on that committee, but Colman makes up for it.

[cardinal4]

Bolton is the best thing to happen to the UN, they just dont know it yet..

[dancusa]

John Bolton. Speak softly forcefully and carry a big stick.

[monkapotamus]

That's funny I was just thinking of such a saying.. ;)
