    Bolton's right

    Oh please, you prisses. Does the US representative at that house of horrors have to explain, defend, justify things to every janitor wandering through the building? Give me a break. Had he answered in substance you'd say he was lying. Had he answered with a dodge you'd say he was....dodging. He job is to represent US interests, not be a kick dummy for the international hypocritical community. I say good for Bolton -- do you think he can make the UN worse than it is?
