Bolton Blows Big Break?

Thought I’d go with a New York Post/Times esque headline there.

Here are links to the Fox and Washington Post items on it, both from the AP:

A former chief of the State Department’s bureau of intelligence and research castigated John R. Bolton on Tuesday as a “kiss-up, kick-down sort of guy” who abused analysts who disagreed with his views of Cuba’s weapons capabilities.

Anyone think he’s still got a chance? Or that there is no doubt he’ll get through? Or if he should or shouldn’t represent us with the UN?

Talk about blowing a big break

Oops… wrong Bolton

"Cuba’s weapons capabilities. "

Huh???

What a putz. Of the hundreds of millions of people in the United States, this was who the administration selected as the best candidate for UN ambassador?!?! Is this a joke or an intentional dig at the UN. Can someone explain this one to me?

Died of heart failure. Apparently he was born with some sort of a heart defect. Not clear yet whether drugs played a role. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A23956-2005Apr3.html)
