who endangers his childrens and ultimately EVERY Americans future security because he is willing to manufacture fake intel and fires anyone who tries to reveal his lies. If John Bolton is confirmed its not only a reward for making up the WMD lies but it will also result in Bolton making up more lies out of thin air to justify another war for oil and nation building in yet another country futher destablizing the entire world and shooting terrorism levels thru the roof.This isnt just an American issue. Can the World afford to have this rabid dog in such a sensitive position as UN Ambassador especially when this deranged freak--( who chases women around hotels and forces all his wives into having group sex)--doesnt even believe the UN has a right to exist at all and arrogantly believes the US should act unilaterally as a global bully Empire

Republican George Voinovich choked back tears as he plead with his colleagues not to vote for Bolton. Voinovich said "I don't want to take the risk. I came back here and ran for a second term because I'm worried about my kids and my grandchildren. And I just hope my colleagues will take the time and... do some serious thinking about whether or not we should send John Bolton to the United Nations."

I feel sorry for anyone who believes a magazine that, in the 1930s, covered up Stalin's atrocities in Ukraine (and the reporter, Walter Duranty, won a Pulitzer Prize- go figure). The same magazine that helped Castro come to power by only telling one side of the story. Every atrocity Batista committed was widely publicized. Every atrocity the communists committed was ignored entirely. Moreover, even though Castro had been a communist for many years (and the fact that many people, including Castro's ex-pilot, warned the American people he was a communist), the NY Times' Herbert Matthews continued to assure us he "wasn't a communist." The New York Times gave enormous coverage to the My Lai massacre- as well they should. However, they were strangely quiet when the Hue massacre took place (during that massacre, the communists killed several thousand people).

Got anything that's not at least thirty years old? Probably not, because then you'd have to acknowledge the part the NY Times, particularly Judith Miller, played in being the cheerleaders in the runup to the Iraq War. Miller practically spouted Chalabi's BS word for word, no matter how ludicrous it was. What was that about the NY Times being a liberal rag again? Hmmmm?

What's wrong with Mandela? He's no saint, but no revolutionary leader is, and he's certainly better than Botha was. Or Reagan, for that matter, who tried to veto a resolution that divested the US government of their South African holdings as a response to apartheid--a veto that was overturned, I might add, by a bipartisan majority. Not all Republicans are racists, after all. Just some.

Great senator. He talks a bit much, but he's very right. Bolton is an ass - he doesn't deserve becoming UN ambassador to the UN from the US. Actually, since the US so dislikes the UN, they might aswell leave and let the rest of the world use the UN properly without the biggest bully messing things up all the time. :p We just need to figure out the financial side of this arrangement...
