Bolton bolts... Lightning strikes...
In a bit of good news, the media is reporting today the "resignation" of Bolton from the position of US Ambassador to the UN, a job for which the Senate has NEVER confirmed him, and which he has thus been usurping for more than a year, and for which even the bushbaby has finally realized the new Senate, including some prominent Republicans, will NEVER confirm him in the future.
Time to appoint - and confirm - someone committed to diplomacy and the United Nations so that the US can begin a slow return to international legitimacy and credibility.
Here a few links to the reports on the end of this "acting" ambassador:
from The New York Times,
from The Washington Post,
from Der Spiegel,
from CNN, and
from Nouvel Observateur.
Let us all rejoice together.
