Bolton and the UN

Well, I think we would all agree that this is an interesting time in the history of the US and the UN... and I would at least make the leap in saying that this is a very critical time.

And somehow I seem to not approve of (m)any of Bush's decisions these days... and somehow this guy Bolton just doesn't seem like the best face to show the world government, you know?

I hesitate to put too much value on the UN, but I readily recognize that there is a great need for accountability and a sort of checks and balances in the world today... especially checks and balances on the Bush Administration's America.

Well, that's just my 30-seconds of thought on the matter. Barbara Boxer (who I voted for) had some pretty good points about Bolton's past record of being pretty anti-UN... and this is Mr. Bush's best choice for ambassador? Hmm.

An article for further reading.

Unlike having the guy behind the "torture memo" at the helm of the Department of Justice; this is simply absurd instead of obscene.
