Thank You John Bolton!!

Despite the ranting from the Left, and Democrats in general, Bolton has pulled off the impossible; that is, getting China to agree to bring the matter before the Security Council in the first place. For the past 12 years, China has vetoed every attempt by the United States to bring North Korea before the Security Council. It took some persuading for that to change, and it is Bolton who deserves all of the credit for making that happen.

Maybe now we can persuade Senator Lincoln Chaffee, to lift his hold on Bolton's nomination to be permanent Ambassador to the United Nations. Now more than ever, it is vital to have someone with an even hand, and a persuasive voice in the UN. If that madman starts tossing warheads around, someone is going to have to respond. Best that we work with the UN to head things off before we get to that point...

Yes. Thanks to John Bolton. I'd like to know how he did this.

In four weeks time, Chafee will be history.

Today, Lincoln Chaffee in a press availability session said that John Bolton alienated the North Koreans and should be investigated.

Nancy Pelosi said, "This is another failure in diplomacy on behalf of the Bush administration. Bush's failed policies have led to NK acquiring a bomb."

When mentioned to her that NK cheated on its agreement with the Clinton administration, Pelosi stated that there never was an agreement. Clinton was trying to get an agreement.
