RNC Cites John Bolton Who Assesses President Obama's UN Speech As Signalling "Weakness"
Edited on Thu Sep-24-09 09:00 PM by TomCADem
Ironically, CNN initially said that President Obama's speech was continuing President's Bush's policy of engagement. Yet, here is John Bolton and the Republicans:

###

The Republican National Committee has sent reporters a “radio actuality” by John Bolton, President George W. Bush’s controversial ex-U.N. ambassador, who has parlayed a 16-month stint in that office into a career as a quotable defense hawk. So one of the GOP’s official responses to the President’s speech to the United Nations General Assembly is a short clip of Bolton talking into a telephone, clipped for “radio stations and websites wishing to use the audio for broadcast.” A sample:


That speech capped a series of events over the past week or so that also signaled weakness on a variety of fronts, starting with the decision to abandon construction of the missile defense sites in Poland and the Czech Republic. These are sites that were intended to defend America, defend the homeland against missile attacks from Iran or other rogue states. And the president has simply given that away to Russia with getting nothing in return.

I'd take this as a good sign!

8. I would say he is brainless
But he obviously has some kind of counterweight in his head to balance out the huge 'stache.

11. Simply Put, Bolton Wants The US To Commit Troops To Defeat Muslim Nations In the Middle East
He wants indefinite wars against Muslims in the Middle East, and anything short of that, he considers weakness. The man is sick, and he should never be given power in any way shape or form.
