With Bush's man installed, is this the end of diplomacy? (Or, Webe Whinnin')
2005-08-26
Money statements:
... "Congess, Republican-dominated, is now talking about withholding half of the US contribution unless US-backed changes are implemented. Enter John Bolton. His nomination was so controversial the President failed to win cross-party backing and he was appointed in a so-called "recess appointment" valid only until the new Congress in January 2007. But judging from his few weeks in New York, Mr Bolton is not at the UN to negotiate.

Since Madeleine Albright, President Clinton's UN representative, the US delegate has arrived with a rocket in his or her pocket. In the council, if the other delegates do not like what the Americans want, the US no longer hesitates to act without UN blessing. Now Mr Bolton is at the UN with a mission. At the end of the Cold War, Francis Fukuyama famously decreed the end of history. We could be witnessing the end of diplomacy."
Or, the jig is up you retards
