Just in case you were following the Bolton process, it appears his nomination has stalled out, at least for now.I have a slighlty different take on the guy:assuming that he is as inept and bullying as protrayed, it might actually be better for him to be in the UN as he'll alienate the other diplomats in supporting the US positions, which as we all know, these days tend to be despicable - from blocking any resolutions on the Israeli bombardment of Lebanon to passing a completely spineless resolution on Darfur (aka let the foxes guard the hens resolution).So in a way, his confirmation would be a good thing. Plus, i like his moustache.irrationally yours, frankie baby
