Bolton over-ride

It is a travesty and an insult to the role of the Senate for advise and consent that Bush has now recess-appointed John Bolton to the post as the U.S.'s ambassador to the U.N. The Administration did not allow skeptics of Bolton's nomination to see the information they requested, did not address Bolton's role in the outing of Valerie Wilson's identity as an undercover CIA operative to Robert Novak, nor did it address any of the concerns over Bolton's bullying past, as well as issues he may be blackmailed on in the future, like his forcing of his ex-wife to go to swinger clubs in New York that could leave the U.S. government open to blackmail and ransom demands.
