Bush appoints Bolton as new UN ambassador

[Hurin_Rules]

Stick it to them? By appointing a man totally unqualified to hold any government office; let alone anything to do with foreign relations?

That's not stickin it to 'em. That's being incompetant.

Sorry, but he is 'stickin it to 'em.' If by 'em you mean the American people.

For a man who claimed to be a uniter and not a divider, he's sure doing a lot of division. Not the long kind, mind you--that is still far beyond his ken.

That attitude is the reason many Americans want Bolton at the UN. Hopefully he'll slap some of that smug arrogance out of the institution.

there´s some smug arrogance going around all right.... not from where you think tough.

right... I have to admit to being a little confused here.

the senate is republican majority right now. if they wanted to, presumably this means the GOP could force a vote. But they haven't.

So it seems likely that though the deomcrats will be obstructing at every turn, it isn't just the democrats that have reservations...

What do republican senators have against the man?
