Bolton Already Insulting Sensitive International Community

Not surprisingly, Liberal Larry is none too happy with the appointment of John Bolton to the U.N. I would have to agree on this one. After all, there is such a thing as decorum for God's sake, and Bolton has already defied an age-old tradtition at the United Nations.

In a scant 24 hours on the job, Bolton has already insulted Secretary General Kofi Annan by showing up to the traditional introductory meeting without the customary kneepads and suitcase full of cash. Such arrogance will only alienate our allies, and runs the serious risk of forcing trusted friends like France to collaborate with our enemies.

One of the first things every child learns is how to play nicely with others. It's a skill that requires a willingness to compromise - that is, bend over and blindly acquiesce without demanding anything in return. Throughout his career, John Bolton has demonstrated that he cannot play nicely with others. Indeed, he's little more than a playground bully who will put the interests of his country above the needs of the International Community. A congressionally appointed envoy to the United Nations should not be a swaggering cowboy, but rather a nurturing, multi-breasted nursemaid upon whose giant teats developing third-world countries can perpetually suckle. Unless I am mistaken, John Bolton has no teats.

Once this Bolton silliness comes to an end this country will need a qualified replacement. Might I suggest we create a short-list of nurturing, multi-breasted nursemaids now, to both expedite the conformation process and placate the mammary-obsessesed folks at the U.N.
