Bolton's Despicable Treatment by Democrats

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton has resigned. President Bush has accepted his resignation. Bolton, who had been denied an up or down vote by filibustering Democrats, was a recess appointment by Bush as a means to get around the deadlock.

The blocking of a confirmation vote by Democrats in Congress was a tactic employed by children in the sandbox who didn't know how to react to being in a minority in both Houses of Congress and losing the Presidency two elections in a row. 'If I can't get my way, I'll just take my toys and go home,' is the attitude exhibited by these spoiled brats of liberalism, except unfortunately they did not go home. They stayed and filibustered a simple up or down vote, not only for Bolton but for many other Bush appointees.

So, what is this talk about bipartisanship and 'cooperation across the aisle'? What is all this nonsense Pelosi spouts about 'we want to work cooperatively with the President'?

Bull. The simple fact is the Democrats are lying through their teeth, and their actions with regard to Bush appointees is ample proof. If they are so overwhelmed with the need for 'bipartisanship,' then why would they not allow a vote on Bolton? If they are so self-righteously sanctimonious about 'cooperating with the President,' then what about their six-year long threat of filibuster to block at least a half dozen Bush appointees, including Bolton?

If they don't like the Bush nominations, they could have simply voted against them. But these obstructionist decided not to allow a vote at all...the minority controlling the majority.

Two can play this game. It is time for Bush and company to come out swinging against these hypocrites. Tell the American people what Pelosi, Kennedy, Biden, and company have done and name names. Then let the American people decide if this is truly cooperation and bipartisanship.

In addition, Republicans are a minority only by a very slim margin. They should block each and every measure the Demos bring to the floor. They should use every single tactical means in their arsenal to thwart the ultra-extremist agenda of Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, John Kerry, John Conyers, Ted Kennedy, and the rest of the socialist thugs who now run Congress. If that means filibuster, then so be it. This is how the Democrats operated when they were in a minority. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

John Bolton was without doubt the finest, most courageous U.N. Ambassador this nation has ever had. His voice was one of reason in the midst of a cesspool of criminals, tyrannical thugs, dictators, and commies that now occupy leadership positions in the U.N. This organization has gradually become one of the most corrupt entities on earth, not to mention the fact that they allow wolves in the henhouse by putting nations such as Cuba and Syria on its human rights committees.

I wouldn't be surprised if one day the U.N. decides to name a free speech and free press award after Fidel Castro.

Bolton stood for liberty, honesty, integrity, and honor within this corrupt cesspool, fearlessly taking up for America's interests in the world when it seemed at times as if every nation on earth with the exception of Great Britain was against us.

For this he was vilified, demonized, harassed, and taunted by this country's liberals and their comrades at arms in Cuba, North Korea, Iran, France, and Belgium. His treatment by the Democrats was truly despicable. Their actions were anything but bipartisan and cooperative. We should use every means available to thwart and block every single proposal they launch in the new Congress. They deserve ZERO cooperation.
