The Nuts Get Bolton
By David Warren
Perhaps the best ambassador to the U.N. that the U.S. has had for a
generation, has resigned rather than put his country and the Bush
administration through the spectacle of being retroactively "Borked" by
a soon Democrat-controlled U.S. Senate. John Bolton was detested by
many senators (and admired by a few) as much for his robust personal
qualities, as for his proven ability to advance U.S. interests through
the chambers of the world's most ponderous, cumbersome, and therefore
thankfully ineffective, anti-American institution.
Let's face it, Bolton was foisted on the US Congress by a Shrubbery mad
with their own power, who thought they didn't need to be accountable to
the democratic institutions. Now they're learning why that was wrong.
Frankly, they seem damned unappreciative of the valuable lesson in
practical politics they're being taught.
