Bye bye Bolton

It gave me great joy to hear that John Bolton will be stepping down as U.N. Ambassador once his recess appointment ends. Yep. Dumbya tried to pull a fast one, but the Senate Foreign Relations Committee had the common sense to say, "Hey. No way." The fact that George thought this obstreperous individual would be an ideal representative of this country's foreign policy says quite a bit about... our foreign policy. Why not appoint an uncooperative bully to be the face of an apparently uncooperative, bullying nation? After all, we've alienated many of our allies (heck, seems even Tony Blair is beginning to falter) and added to our already extensive list of enemies, so why not let another bull into the china shop? Thank goodness cooler (and more rational and slightly less nationalistic) heads prevailed.

"Damn. I was really looking forward to breakin' stuff."
