Well, the democrats are talking cooperation with the White House. They want to get things done...they say.

Seems like business as usual for democrats and that business is talking out of both sides of their mouths...in other words they're lying.

Take the issue of the US Ambassador to the UN for instance. John Bolton was sent to the UN to clean up the colossal corruption, general incompetence and lack of accountability there.

Democrats opposed his nomination and Bush gave Bolton a recess appointment which expires at the end of the year.

Bolton has been the most effective US Ambassador to the UN the US has sent to that corrupt and ineffectual body since the days of Jean Kirkpatrick and Daniel Patrick Moynihan but......Bolton loves the United States and understands he works for the interests of the United States.

That makes some diplomats at Foggy Bottom very queasy and of course our enemies hate John Bolton. TS babies.

Now, we hear democrats who love the UN with all it's corruption, muddled thinking, inefficiency, double dealing and unaccountability and who don't believe our UN Ambassador should be pursuing the interests of the United States say they are going to oppose Bolton.

I would say democrats are off to a good start...if proving deception and double talk are all they have in their tanks, which is exactly what I believe.

Newspapers Endorse John Bolton


Following the lead of NewsMax.com's editorial Keep John Bolton , influential newspapers across the U.S. are endorsing John Bolton to be confirmed to the post of U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, a job he has filled with distinction for the last year.

In a Tuesday editorial The Chicago Sun Times, for example. told its readers that Bolton has done an exemplary job at the U.N. noting that "He succeeded in getting resolutions to impose sanctions on North Korea; he brokered a Security Council resolution to end the war between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. If the Democrats are genuine about working in a collegial manner with the president, they will endorse Bolton: He has turned out to be far more co-operative than divisive. He is, in fact, an able diplomat."

On Monday The New York Post also called for Bolton's confirmation, arguing that Democrats "have an obligation to demonstrate conclusively to America's enemies that they don't have allies on Capitol Hill," but have "sent precisely the opposite signal" by indicating they will block John Bolton's nomination as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. The Post quoted Sen. George Voinovich's, R-Ohio, "warning" that he could not "imagine a worse message to send to the terrorists and to other nations deciding whether to engage in [fighting terrorism] than to . . . replace" Bolton.

Also on Tuesday the Chicago Tribune urged Bolton's confirmation, writing that " If Democrats want to put some heft behind their post-election rhetoric about working with the White House, they will recognize that Bolton has proved himself in the job. And they will allow the Senate to vote on his confirmation."
