Subject: A Bolton from the Blue

LIKE A BOLTON FROM THE BLUE [Andy McCarthy, National Review] That's what the corrupt, dysfunctional UN must feel like it's been hit with this month, as U.S. Ambassador John Bolton takes his turn as Chairman of the Security Council. The NYTimes reports this morning: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/18/international/18nations.html?pagewanted=all "Mr. Bolton, president of the Security Council this month, set meetings next week on what the United Nations has been doing about charges of sexual exploitation by peacekeepers and an audit on waste approaching $300 million in the peacekeeping purchasing department." Naturally, the UN General Assembly is upset -- not at the waste, fraud and corruption but at the fact that Bolton cannot be dissuaded from shining a light on it. Go, go Johnny go, go! swhitebull
