here's an original thought on why john bolton really is a bad choice for u.n. ambassador. personally, i can't stand the fact that such a person is oing to represent us in the united nations. but the more i think about it, he's perfect. he perfectly represents EVERYTHING about the united states in 2005 and its place in the world -- arrogant, cantankerous, moody, dishonest.

here's slate...
"Now Bolton, in having to scramble desperately to secure confirmation, is paying for all the enemies he's made in Washington. To some extent America is in the same position. Under President Bush it has made more enemies than it had to, because his foreign policy has been counterproductively unilateralist and gratuitously antagonistic."
