Dear Little Clarkie
George Bush and the Senate Republican leadership continue to
prop up John Bolton's nomination for UN Ambassador -- despite
overwhelming evidence that Bolton is the absolute wrong choice
for the job.
More than 20,000 people have already emailed the White House
through my PAC for a Change website, calling on President Bush
to replace John Bolton with a new UN nominee that all Americans
can support.
But with the Senate out on recess next week, I need you to keep
the pressure on the White House. We can't stop now.
Email George Bush and tell him to withdraw John Bolton's
nomination now!
http://www.pacforachange.com/It's clear that the right-wing Republicans aren't going to back
down on Bolton without a fight.
Just this week, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Dick
Lugar scheduled a final committee vote on Bolton for May 12th,
applying pressure on undecided Republican committee members by
publicly vowing that they would confirm Bolton and move his
nomination to the floor of the Senate.
And in a nationally televised press conference Thursday evening,
President Bush reaffirmed his support of John Bolton, calling
him a "blunt guy" who "can get the job done at the United
Nations."
Well I think that a man like John Bolton who has shown nothing
but contempt for the United Nations throughout his entire
career, repeatedly abused and bullied subordinates, and
attempted to pressure intelligence analysts to give him the
answers he wants to hear is unfit to be America's chief
representative at the United Nations.
If you agree, please stand with me -- tell George Bush to send
us a new UN nominee now!
http://www.pacforachange.com/Thanks so much for your support on this critical issue. At a
time when our nation must focus on rebuilding relationships with
our friends and allies around the world, America simply can't
afford to have John Bolton representing us in such an important
diplomatic post.
In Friendship,
Barbara Boxer
