Over a year ago, following the recess apointment of John Bolton to be ambasador to the United Nations, I wrote a post that described how our legislative left were having a collective hisse fit. I quoted Harry Reid, Edward M. Kennedy, Barbara Mikulski, and Barack Obama. John Kerry’s words were also examined:

And finally, John (why let the truth get in the way) Kerry (who served in Viet Nam, by the way) – “The president has the right to make this recess appointment, but it’s the wrong decision. It only diminishes John Bolton’s validity and leverage to secure America’s goals at the U.N. John Bolton has been rejected twice by the Senate to serve as our Ambassador to the United Nations. This is not the way to fill our most important diplomatic jobs.”
Funny thing is, he’s got a real BS sandwich here. Totally wrong analysis sandwiched between two true statements. Do I think that last statement is true? I sure do. An up or down vote would have been the better way, but if you can’t beat ‘em, obstruct ‘em is the new way of the left.

As you probably know, Ambassador Bolton’s appointment will expire in just a few months. In spite of the outstanding job he has done so far, the possibility that those on the left will make another attempt to obstuct his appointment remains a very real prospect.

Senator Bill Frist’s VOLPAC has created Blogging For Bolton.

This month Senate Republicans will do everything they can to break Democrat obstruction and give John Bolton the fair up-or-down vote that he was denied last year. But we need your help to turn up the heat on the Democrats by flooding their offices with your calls in support of Ambassador Bolton and the President’s agenda for reforming the waste and incompetence of the United Nations.

Go to the site, make your phone calls, and help get John Bolton confirmed and back doing the job he is doing so well.
