John Bolton under more pressure

I don't get it. I thought we wanted politicians who spoke their mind, who were straight-shooters, and who didn't heed all that political maneuvering mumbo jumbo. Based on Bolton's record he seems like that kind of guy (I think it's the mustache). But if you're the BBC, you just can't have people who tell it like it is: In the [July 2003] speech, Mr Bolton described North Korean leader Kim Jong-il as a "tyrannical dictator" and the country as a "hellish nightmare" for its people. Pyongyang was incensed, labelling him "human scum" and refused to continue negotiating with him. Aaaaww, did widdle Boltie-woltie hurwt duh widdle commie-wommie's feewings? Just sounds like he was speaking the truth. I know truths and facts are tough for Democrats to handle, but they'd better get used to it. Diplomacy has led to the single largest scandal ever, the Oil for Food program, not to mention scores of allegations of abuses by UN officials including rape. Diplomacy in dealings with North Korea led to Pingpong getting nuclear weapons in the first place, because Democrats don't seem to understand bad guys do bad things... like lie (and it only gets worse from there). So what's not to like about a "cowboy" that's gonna call a spade a spade. The namby-pamby UN wusses had better get used to it. I'd threaten to cut our funding to the UN if they didn't shape things up over there (hell, I'd probably cut there funding just on principle, they already hate us, so we wouldn't be losing very much). Bolton's going to be the new mustache of diplomacy.
