"Someday, I guarantee you that in hindsight GW will be considered one of the greatest Presidents america has ever had and John Bolton will also be proven to be the best UN rep we have ever had."



BWHAHAHHAAAA!!!

One of the greats like Nixon before impeachment. Just look at Bolton's scowling face with that wisk broom of a mustache in that picture here, he looks just like the SOUR, SOB he is, his best career option is night JANITOR at a school somewhere.

bellaL said, "John Bolton was not the one who stood up in front of the entire UN a few months back and made a complete *** of himself. That fellow was just elected Pres. of Venezuela..."

Chavez made no points for diplomacy, but he is surely no more offensive for his rude behavior than Bush for open prevarications to the world about Iraq and alleged WMDs to the UN Security Council.

Bush and his brazen defiance of world opinion, his bull-in-the-china-shop unilateralism, basically trashed what was left of the global leadership role of the US.

We cannot control Chavez, but must better control who claims to be POTUS. Bush not only made a spectacle of himself, but dishonored the office of president with his high crimes and misdemeanors.

In November, 2005, in Washington, DC, Bush, facing an assembly of party members critical of his NSA spying program, bristled like a teenager caught drinking after curfew-- "Stop throwing the Constitution in my face! It just a GD)((#@*! piece of paper!"

Ironically, Bolton had a better reputation leaving the UN than when he arrived. His quasi-humorous jabs at the UN gave the strong impression he did not expect much of the organization-- but neither did the UN of him. Some of that accumulated animosity had to be a serious problem for Bolton, and by comparison, Negroponte was a statesman.

No accident Bolton got his appointment during a congressional recess, when none was looking, and not surprisngly, from the same guy who periodically lifts his middle finger in salute to the august world body.

When are the adults coming back?

Hi TexasKos_com,"checks and ballances" has nothing to do with it. Harry Reid reminds me of that Norm on Sat.Nite Live....He gave me the major crawls too. Very handsome, always a smile on that pretty face of his, but he GAVE ME THE CRAWLS! its very rare someone gives me the crawls. If we could open up those heads and look right in....I'd be keeping my space with a leary eye focused....Pastor Haggard,BEFORE the news,gave me a sense of something off, whatever it was, too.

Italy Pulls Out Final Troops From Iraq
Italy has pulled out its last troops from Iraq - weeks ahead of schedule. At one point Italy had 3,000 troops in Iraq and was Washington's second largest coalition partner, after Britain.

John Bolton was not the one who stood up in front of the entire UN a few months back and made a complete *** of himself. That fellow was just elected Pres. of Venezuela, oops I mean, dictator until death.

It is so interesting to read all the posts about the democrats having only two years to straighten out the mess it has taken this completely republican controlled government 6 years to get the country into. The democrats will not have that kind of control until at least 2008.

But don%u2019t bet the farm that the voters will forget the betrayal so soon. It takes a long time and a lot of injury to get them stirred up enough to take action but it just may take a long time for them to forget too.

My dad used to say: Even a mule will listen if you get his attention. All you have to do is hit him over the head with a club a couple of times. I think the voters have been hit enough lately to last for a while.
