One More Reason Why John Bolton is Good for America
By Rob Hood (08/04/06)
There have been many fought over issues in the world of partisan politics since George W. Bush has been president. One issue is the nomination of people to different positions of power with our government. Supreme Court justices have been fought over tooth and nail and so has the nomination of John Bolton to the UN.
I really don't know what all the fuss is about here. Bolton seems to have been doing a good job representing America and has taken a stand in many areas where a liberal appointed official would have gone along with foreign ideas that Americans oppose.
One such issue is the UN Gun Ban. The UN has been known to be ineffective and corrupt, not to mention anti-Semitic and anti-American at times because of our conservative policies and our strength to stand up behind them without wavering.
The UN has been caught red handed in making deals with dictators and terror sponsors such as Saddam Hussein. Remember the food for oil scandal? We know the mainstream media wants us to forget it but we won't because it's too important to forget.
We all know that the UN has been a driving force behind left wing sponsored gun ban proposals that all Americans should reject to even listen to. John Bolton alone has had the guts to do what no liberal representative of the United States would do by standing up to the bullies at the UN and letting them know that America is sovereign, free, and will remain that way and in no way will we ever adhere to foreign law in our land. No way will we ever give up our Second Amendment rights because a foreign government says we should.
Recently our hero on the right, John Bolton slammed the UN for unnecessary remarks about conservatives living in "fly-over country". UN Deputy Secretary-General Mark Malloch Brown stated that the United States is to blame for lost efforts he deemed "good works". He blamed outlets such as Fox News and Rush Limbaugh for failed UN policies. In short, he just said that public outcry against the UN was to be blamed on American conservatives. This seems to be a trend these days. When you fail, just blame someone you don't like.
Of course this radical, out of touch from reality fantasy enraged John Bolton. Bolton referred to it as a grave mistake. Bolton told the Secretary-General Kofi Annan that this was the worst mistake made by a UN official since the entire time that he personally knew Kofi Annan from 1989. Bolton is quoted for stating "To have the deputy secretary-general criticize the United States in such a manner can only do grave harm to the United nations."
I am glad that President Bush picked John Bolton for this job. He knows how and when to take a stand for America and what we believe in. He knows what the majority of America stands for. He knows how to represent a people of great integrity and moral values and this alone is one more reason why America needs a man like John Bolton.
