Official Says Bolton Flouted Travel Rules
Official Says Bolton Flouted Travel Rules

Talk about arrogance, this guy is truly one of the sleaziest characters ever.

"But Bolton, who is undersecretary of state for arms control and international security, persisted in trying to set up subsequent meetings on his own, Jones said.

"It's symptomatic of his determination not to work with other people," she said.

On foreign trips, particularly to Moscow, "He was off on his own doing by God what he pleases," Jones said. "It is a State Department rule these meetings must be coordinated with the embassy.""

1. When taking into account all of the other things Bolton has done...
this is a minor atrocity.

If it stood alone--if this was the ONLY thing he'd done wrong--it would be enough to justify not confirming him. But in the broader scheme of things, where he's done everything imaginable and many things unimaginable to piss off the world, it hardly matters.

Relativity is a wonderful thing.
