Bolton making his move to destroy UN
UN second in command called out Faux news and rushbo in that the good news of the UN actions doesn't get out. Goofy Bolton dusted his cookie and said that Kofi Anan's staff should resign.
:argh:

4. Would you care to go a little deeper?
If you can.
Welcome to DU!
Is there something that you don't like about the UN?
Bolton should resign IMHO.

:hi:

11. I don't think it was retarded at all. I think Bolton was
deliberately chosen and deliberately tasked with wreaking as much havoc and destruction at the U.N. as he could. Few things would make Bush and the Neocons happier than the demise of the U.N. and they picked exactly the right person to accomplish that job.

6. Bolton has 5 months left until his Cruella ambassadorship
comes to an end. Cinderella Bolton would have to go back before the senate to actually get confirmed and if Dems are in charge... the happy ending part is him bein a real ambassador....

9. Yosemite Bolton is losing control when the UN staff called his
propaganda arm out in front of everybody. The UN staff greatly embarrassed the faux amabassador, Cruella Bolton. :rofl:

7. Found a link to the story
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2006/06/08/wun08.xml&sSheet=/news/2006/06/08/ixnews.html

America demanded last night that Kofi Annan, the United Nations Secretary General, repudiate a speech by his deputy in which he savaged Washington for cynical "UN-bashing".

Mark Malloch Brown criticised the Americans for using the UN when they needed it abroad but failing to defend it at home.


Bolton:

John Bolton, America's UN ambassador and a veteran critic of the UN, called the speech a "very, very grave mistake". If not repudiated, it could destroy hopes of reaching agreement on much-needed reforms, he added.

"To have the deputy secretary general criticise the United States in such a manner can only do grave harm to the United Nations," he said. "I spoke to the secretary general this morning. I said, 'I've known you since 1989 and I'm telling you this is the worst mistake by a senior UN official that I have seen in that entire time'."

:shrug:

13. He'll have to do better than this
Defending Fox News and Rush Limbaugh is not going to garner him a lot of sympathy.

16. All part of the plan to WEAKEN THE UN BEFORE THE IRAN BOMBING.
This high school bullshit by Bolton relates to his job as the hit man to weaken the UN prior to the IRAN bombing or invasion. King Chimp will do something about IRAN before leaving office. It has been preordained by his gOD and his neocon puppetmasters.

17. Bolton did look stupid to the world
I'm sure fox will fawn on his every word.
I hope it is not the start of the next phase of the War Without End - Amen

18. Scott Ritter predicted this before Bolton was nominated
So I guess I'm not surprised that Bolton is on a mission to destroy.

23. Dubby and the PNAC boys like him though
They will find a way to keep this clown out in front.
Sorry to be pushing this thread, but I felt this was an important power play.
