BOLTON SHOULD GO TO UN—WITHOUT DOUBT

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

John R. Bolton should be sent to the United Nations as the United States Ambassador — without doubt.

The Dems are using Bolton as a political football and they know it. The Republicans have expected it and are ready for the battle line.

Using a name such as Bolton simply for a political football is debasing to a political party; then again, what could be debasing to the Dems after the displays of hate speech and derangement in illogic put forth for the world to view during the presidential election last year?

Dems bring out that Bolton has criticized the UN in speeches. Good.

The UN needs a lot of criticism; therefore, it’s time that a state-of-the-art critic should go the UN to voice there as America’s ambassador. Surely there is needed a US appointed gadfly at the UN. If not, the US cannot expect much change in the quagmired UN in need of housecleaning and much repair.

According to Los Angeles Times’ reporter Sonni Efron, "Democratic senators today (stated) that he (Bolton) sought to have two intelligence analysts removed from their jobs for refusing to alter their assessments (of the UN). Bolton testified that he did speak to the superiors of both analysts to say that he had lost confidence in the analysts and thought they should be reassigned."

So what’s incorrect professionally about what Bolton did? Seemingly nothing at all. It happens all the time in organizational life. Why should it not happen in Bolton’s professional history?"

In a long, bruising hearing, Senate Democrats painted Bolton as ideologically hostile to the United Nations, undiplomatic, and too compromised byhis handling of intelligence to be entrusted with America's top U.N. job.

"’The U.N. needs reform — lots of it,’ said Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del.). ‘But we don't need a voice people are not inclined to listen to.’"

Question: Who says that the Bolton "voice" won’t be admired by the American public? Does Biden have the final analysis on the grassroots? Not.

More in line with American assessment reality is that from Senator George Allen, Republican of Virginia, when he stated that Bolton was "’the absolute perfect person for the job’" because "’you'll advance our principles and you are not going to be seduced’" by the "’pontificating bureaucrats’" at the United Nations.

Yes.

Remember when John F. Kerry, the Dem darling, advocated the US be turned over to the world powers, namely, the UN, thugs of the planet? The Dems therefore are simply taking that doctrine another deplorable step
further.

Not good. Won’t work. Therefore, send Bolton to the UN — ASAP.
