Romney Adviser Bolton Cheers For Iran Diplomacy To Fail: ‘Fortunately’ There Was No Breakthrough

...Bolton started off by expressing his relief that the last round of talks in Baghdad between Iran and the West yielded no breakthroughs:

Fortunately, however, the recently concluded Baghdad talks between Iran and the U.N. Security Council’s five permanent members and Germany (P-5+1) produced no substantive agreement.

If Bolton had been sitting at Hillary Clinton's desk, with some insecure cipher like Romney to set him loose, there's little doubt that Tehran would be in ashes and a world war under way.
