The warmongering ideologue turns on the criminal sleazeballs.
We may come out of this grateful for Bolton. Who'd have guessed?

sufficiently so to not be implicated in any of Rudy's garbage. Unlike the latter, clearly, Bolton retained some of his law school education.

Pretty interesting, that's for sure.

Exactly what planet, Tipperary? As I have said for over 15 years on Bolton--he is an absolute a'hole on a scale with Dick Cheney--who I hold in the highest contempt. But similarly to Bolton, an evil, yet an intelligent man. Even among the nastiest, most hated gang of thugs, there are those with sufficient intellect who are more likely to evade being caught in the most obvious of lawlessness. Does that mean they are to be trusted? Hell no. Prepared to pop the popcorn while he takes down the more ignorant of the bunch? Sure.


Please, on WHAT PLANET is that "love" for Bolton? You see what you want to see, I guess, but don't project that on ME.

in other words, he didn't get a dime of all that free money. So, he flips, writes a book and comes out ahead of the gang. Be the only one that wasn't in on the deal.

As much as I hate him I have to show some grudging respect to the infighting skill here.

He always comes into makeup with an explosive filled suicide bomber vest strapped on him, with his pinky finger inserted into the ring of a live grenade's pin.
