A dark day for the U.N.

I hope everyone has been paying attention to the completely tragic appointment of John Bolton as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. On Monday, President Bush placed Bolton in the post through the use of a recess appointment which by-passes Senate approval. This cowardly, back-door procedure has never been used with the very important position of UN ambassador. Until now. In case you don't have a TV or don't watch news, here's a mini summary. John Bolton was nominated and the Senate was blocking the vote on his approval. The Senate had requested documents from the White House on Mr. Bolton's record and public statements but the administration refused to comply. Instead of nominating an acceptable, reasonable candidate, Bushie has gone ahead to abuse his power and install Bolton without the approval of the nations elected officials. It is an outrage and my stomach continues to turn.

So, to recap, we have:
1. Abuse of Power-Recess appointment of UN-hater to post as US ambassador to UN
2. High Treason-Karl Rove's disclosure of the identity of an under-cover CIA operative
3. Dividing, Not Uniting-Nomination of divisive, anti-choice, anti-privacy, anti-environment man to life-long post on the Supreme Court.

Which way should the people look? I think that's exactly the plan. Educate yourselves!
