Josh Bolton always seems to be unflappable.

He reminds me of a friend of mine who used to work for my company.  Before he joined us he was in the Ford administration.  He's a Human Relations type and his specialty was setting up, staffing and running new organizations during their start up phase.  What he did for the Ford administration was to create a little group within the Energy Department called NEST, the Nuclear Emergency Search Team.  This is, as you probably know, a bunch of folks who carry geiger counters and guns and are told to assume that someone has planted a nuke, somewhere, so they should go find it.

When he joined our company (long before I did) he was involved in our HR group as a senior executive.  He got involved in a couple of very nasty labor disputes where there were literally death threats being hurled back and forth across the negotiating table.  My friend was the only calm person in the room and he was asked how he could be so calm.  His reply was to ask a question "are their any nukes involved?  No?  Then we can work this out."

Bolton appearing on the talk shows after having been thrust into the midst of the ongoing UN melt down is like a walk in the park.  No big deal.  Why should he get tense? <g>

yep, I have noticed that one of the biggest differences in liberals is their irrational emoting in all things. They do not seem to be able to think objectively regarding any issue. They always take it to a personal level which indicates to me that it's more about "them" and "their winning".

#181, thanks for that input, very interesting. I agree that John Bolton knows what is right,says what is right,does what is right, and that will bring a lot of Confidence. He is honest and tells the truth, and counteracts the Dems lies with facts. Everything I see him do gives him more and more confidence because it is the right thing to do and the American People will back someone to the hilt that they know tells the truth and has the Facts and truth on his side. They know that they cannot question his Allegiance to America, and most Americans love how he has slammed the U.N. He does not come across as a bully, just a straight up, tough talking,tough acting, tremendous Civil Servant.
