Hell, this is better than the smell of napalm in the morning. Dead Kennedy will have melt-down or hopefully a stroke.

Bolton is the man who will get the job done and look out for America's best interest.

All the liberals will need psychological counselling due to, "BAPTSD." Bolton Appointment Post Traumatic Stree Syndrome. Ha Ha. NSNR

no Disrespect here, the Dems refused to let it go to an up or down vote, and the consistution allows for recess apointments so a slot will not go unfilled, if the Dems actually did there job instead of being obstructionists this wouldn't have been an issues Bolton would have had his vote and if yes he would have been confirmed if no Bush would have presented someone else.

The correct headline would have been Bush Circumbents Filibuster and Appoints Bolton. The Senate wanted him. The filibustering minority in the Senate did not.

Good! At least the UN will get a good dose of kick butt for the next year and a half.

With luck; by the time the next congress arrives, there will no longer be a UN.

Democrats and some Republicans had raised questions about Bolton's fitness for the job, particularly in view of his harsh criticism TRUTH TELLING of the United Nations.
