A small number of Senators blocked the up or down vote on Bolton’s nomination and now those same senators are trying to drive him out.

Newsmax:

A Yale Law School graduate, Bolton served as undersecretary of state for arms control and international security beginning in 2001. Before that he was assistant secretary of state for international organization affairs in President George H.W. Bush’s administration, and earlier he was an assistant attorney general in the Reagan administration.

As David Limbaugh has written, “Liberals don’t like it one bit that Bolton sees his role as vigorously representing the national interests of the United States, just as every other U.N. ambassador advocates the positions of his own country.

“They don’t support Bolton’s efforts to reform the United Nations, a corrupt organization that has consistently mistreated the United States and made a mockery of human rights — a cause it purports to champion. They cringe when Bolton exposes U.N. hypocrisy, such as when he pointedly challenged Louise Arbour, the U.N. high commissioner for human rights, on her threat to charge Israeli leaders with war crimes.”

Democratic Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, who says Bolton’s nomination is going nowhere, once strangely complained that Bolton is “too competent.”

When Bolton assumed his undersecretary of state post, liberal Democratic Sen. Byron Dorgan warned that under Bolton’s direction the U.S. would abandon the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty, build a destabilizing national missile defense system, abandon the Kyoto treaty, suspend talks with North Korea and oppose the International Criminal Court.

Bolton should be confirmed, but the internationalists who favor international law over our constitution are fighting against it. The thought that our president would send Bolton to the corrupt, scandal-ridden, child-molesting U.N. is driving them up a wall.

The Heritage foundation has pointed out a number of points regarding the steadfast principled actions of Bolton, among them-”As former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher observed in a letter of support for John Bolton, ‘A capacity for straight talking rather than peddling half-truths is a strength and not a disadvantage in diplomacy. In the case of a great power like America, it is essential that people know where you stand and assume you know what you say.’”

The New York Times — a longtime critic of Bolton — wrote in an editorial: “When it comes to reforming the disgraceful United Nations Human Rights Commission, America’s ambassador, John Bolton, is right.

Neil Cavuto says what they’re doing to Bolton isn’t fair, isn’t right, and isn’t decent.

So the very Congress that talks up hearing from all sides, won’t even give this man the decency of their vote… yea or nay.

It’s embarrassing. It’s humiliating. It’s politics.

Play these games with nefarious leaders from rogue nations who deserve them. Not with a guy who’s been going 24/7 trying to keep us safe and who does not.

They once said that John Bolton would be like a bull in a china shop. Pity that no one mentioned the even bigger bull, in our own Capitol.
