The voice

No, you're actually the last. There have been so many threads on this subject, I've lost count.

By the way, if your gonna vote no, at least have the balls to say why, k? :D

Wow, somebody with this kind of a personality supports Bolton?

Never would've thought it!

I hate Bolton coz he's a pretty boy and a crappy singer.

Well, when I ask a question and get a prick's response, I give a pricks response back. I don't look down on people for being new at something. Gonna call me a Newb now? Tell me I got Pwned? Are you LEET? Sometimes I think I may just give up the net because of dicks like that!

I know many of the resident liberals will be furious at the appointment, but I'm personally glad...and very amused. Kofi Annan didn't seem too pleased when welcoming Bolton :D

I agree, but I do do have to grudgingly give props to Annan. He handled it like a diplomat!

Three words: Easy on the caffeine, dude.

When you're the leader of a diplomatic organization, you have to specialize in the art of gritting your teeth and keeping a smile on your face while talking to someone you hate :D

You'd think after 2300 posts you'd have that skill too. :fluffle:

UUHHMMMMM....... Three words? Which ones?

I'm glad Bolton was able to finally get there despite the Democrat's filibustering. Maybe he'll shape up the UN, so we aren't forced to leave it like the corrupt and useless mob it is. It's where the internationalist gentlemen go to commit organized crime.

Now for Roberts, and finding a good replacement for Rehnquist and maybe even Stevens.

Scalia better become the Chief Justice.

UUHHMMMMM....... Three words? Which ones?

*watches as the humor just whizzes by*

Well, that went exactly as I expected.

Seeing as dicks are full of cocktastic yumminess, thank you, honey. :)

John Bolton looks like a child molester. Furthermore, he specifically said that the UN didn't exist. Doesn't this present a bit of an existential problem?

If I ran a company that belonged to a trade group, I would choose someone who believes in everything that trade group stands for to go represent my company in that group. I would not choose someone who has criticized the very existence of that group.

Bolton is a terrible choice for that position. I wish that Bush had not destroyed Colin Powell's career. The pre-Bush administration Powell would've been perfect for a position like this one.

Well, insult me in one post, be funny in another. Directly after I'm insulted, any post combining the two is automatically considered an insult, and treated as one. By the way, if your trying to be funny, do it. Half way isn't there, It's only half way. ;)

Look guys, If we disqualify a person because he is an unholy prick who hates and works against the very institution he has been chosen to serve, then we'd have to kick out everyone in the Bush administration. Just not feasible.

WHAT? As a human being, Colin Powell is a fine man, but he needs to grow a set of balls before he does the kind of work that the U.N. requires to ever be taken seriously!

Insult, eh? Read my post a bit more carefully, and you'll see that I was simply stating a fact. You lot always take things out of context.

And @ Fass: LOL!

Well, I guess you should know that I'm totally fueled by alcohol right now, and haven't had caffiene in at least 15 hours! HHMMMMMM? Doesn't help my cause sayin that, does it now? Oh well. I still love you guys, even if I'm right and your wrong!

By the way, out of curiousity, who does "you lot" refer to?

Sorry for the whole attitude, but nothing is more annoying than some one acting like everyone should know every detail that they do about everything on the internet.

I think it's gonna do exactly the opposite. They might just introduce some extra-slow procedures, just to piss the guy off.
Do you think being a troll gets your point of view across?
Cuz that's what Bolton is: A common Troll.

Wrong. A troll says things just to get a negative response. Bolton says things to get results. If the U.N. wasn't such a JOKE, we wouldn't have this problem.
Way to go on Africa , U.N.!

The U.N. may be somewhat of a crock, but that doesn't mean Bolton's not a common dick.

Bolton says things to get results.
Results like negative responses?
The man has no interpersonal skills whatsoever, and I leaned in bloody first year intro to management course that he will crash and burn, as he's done with all of his previous coworkers.

You are correct SD. Bolton is not a troll. He is a jerkoff - and 4 out of 5 dead popes agree: Jerk-offs are immoral.

The problem is that people think Bolton is pushing Bush's agenda. Thats wrong. He's pushing the agenda of 52 million plus Americans who are sick of the "bitch and wait" strategy.

52,000,000 Americans who aren't even in the majority. Funny, that.

I should say... Not even close to 52,000,000. Wasn't that the total amount of voters from BOTH sides?

Hmmm, I can imagine transplanting what goes on in NS general into the UN debates now. =p

Bolton is a guy who doesn't take any crap from anyone, which, I believe, represents the United States of America as a whole. He doesn't like to negotiate, which reflects America, as well. I've supported him from the start and I still do.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but the world isn't a ghiant business! It's real life, with murderers, dictators, terrorists, and fascists. Being a whiny bitch doesn't cut it in the real world. Only in the world of corporations, with rules, and guidelines!

Any you think that the bitch and yell strategy is going to do it?
Any action creates a re-action, that goes for physics as well as interpersonal relations. He sets your agenda back by years, cuz no one is going to seriously sit down and talk with him.

Wrong. There's quite a few Republicans who think Bolton and the stupid attitude toward the UN is childish and wrong. Why do you think Bush did a recess appt? Because there wasn't enough Republican support to get this dickweed through even a Republican congress.

Being a whiny bitch doesn't cut it in the real world.

Neither does being a whiny bitch.

From what I remember, the total votes counted was about 53,000,000. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the number that comes into my mind.

Excactly! Murderers, dictators, terrorists, and fascists, innocents, liberals, conservatives, hippies, neocons...etc. You have to deal with them ALL!The first few are the ones who need Bolton, the rest have the ACLU. Or not?

That things, among others, are making the world a giant business. And very diverse. :rolleyes:

the rest have the ACLU.

Which I'm sure Bolton just LOVES.

Yeah! Lets bash the ACLU - coz civil liberties suck!

What? Bolton isn't talking to Terrorists. He's talking to Diplomats. And Diplomats (just like Terrorists, and all other people on this planet) don't like to be insulted and attacked.
Are you aware how important personal relations are in Diplomacy?

As for Bolton--IMHO he won't do anything extraordinary in the UN.

Bolton is a guy who doesn't take any crap from anyone, which, I believe, represents the United States of America as a whole. He doesn't like to negotiate, which reflects America, as well. I've supported him from the start and I still do.

Well this just sums up Americas problem. They are unwilling to take any criticism (you so eloquently said crap) but they are all to willing to deal it out to everyone else. Take a look in the mirror if you want to gain the respect of the rest of the world, because at the momment you have very little.

Absolutely correct. It is fascinating why so many in the U.S feel they can do what ever they like anywhere, anytime in the world.
Is it because you have so many awesome nukes? Economic power? General " we are better than you"?
The whole point of the U.N is to not have guys like Bolton there, you have to negotiate, if you follow the rules.
To put it shortly USA should not be in the U.N, there really is no reason.

I have only been to the U.S once in my life, and it really is a great country, on the surface that is.

Hmm... I'd like to offer another version of this statement (not my POV, just an example).

'Kim Jong-il is a guy who doesn't take any crap from anyone, which, I believe, represents the Democratic People's Republic of Korea as a whole. He doesn't like to negotiate, which reflects Korea, as well. I've supported him from the start and I still do.'

Yeah, I wasn't happy that day.

UUUUHHM... O.K. Its better than, I guess.

By the way, its not that I'm closed minded, its that I've reviewed all the facts, and made up my mind. I think you liberals call that freedom of speech?

I call that making a "wrong" decision. Short of accusing you of being close-minded afterall, I would merely say that we have some information you didn't/don't have.
No one is telling you to not say anything, so Freedom of Speech never enters the equation.

John Bolton, just what the real world UN needs.
