Bake Sales for Bolton
Here's something entertaining. I see the right-siders are raising money to pay Bolton's salary themselves (hoping that Bush appoints him as a sort of unpaid acting ambassador which apparently doesn't require Congressional approval). Yes, it has come to the point where the blogosphere (and particularly, the most unhinged portion of it) is attempting to run US foreign policy themselves. (Essentially, Bolton would be more beholden to the blogosphere than the US. Don't think so. Imagine if Bolton decides to give peace and diplomacy more than lip-service. Do you think the "Bake Sales for Bolton" would continue if he pushes for policies opposed by the wingnuts?)
If they get to send their own ambassador to the UN, I think I should be able to send an ambassador of my choosing to the UN too, to articulate my own foreign policy.
