Bolton

Let me weigh in quickly on the appointment of John Bolton to be U.N. Ambassador. Senator John "did I tell you I'm a war hero" Kerry has been reported as saying that the president has the right to make a recess appointment, but that this was the wrong choice.

Now, obviously he is entitled to his opinion, but there is just one thing I would like to remind him of, as well as the rest of the swamp fever crowd on the far left. You lost the election, and you lost seats in the house as well as the senate! Elections matter and there are consequences to them. If you had won you would be allowed to pick some fruit cake from the fringes of the leftern hemisphere. It appears though, that the American public has chosen to be a bit more conservative than your dying party is willing to admit.

President Bush has won two elections to the nations top office and has the right to make his picks for ambassador and court nominees. As a matter of fact, he owes it to the people who put him and the republican party in power.

John Kerry said that Bolton has come before the senate twice and lost both times. That is not exactly true. John Bolton was never given a fair up or down vote, and even when there was a vote, he won by a majority. If the democrats continue to stonewall everything that comes before them simply because it is backed by President Bush, they will find themselves trying to dig out of a hole for years to come. The majority of the American people backed this president, and in turn we back what he backs.
