CNN Quick: Bolton getting reamed

[tridim]

A reporter just called him on his lies about Iraq (and PNAC).. "Why should we give you credibility on Iran?" His answer was again, the same lies.

[bigscott]

1. details for those of us

confined to our offices??
thanks

[Viva_La_Revolution]

2. detail...

he still has that critter on his upper lip. ick.

[elehhhhna]

3. Says we've tried diplomacy for YEARS...wah wah we're sickof it !

[BOSSHOG]

7. And we should continue diplomacy

till the cows come home. Diplomacy trumps 2,400 dead, 20,000 wounded, one billion dollars a week wasted. Bolton asshole, diplomacy works; you don't.

[Arkansas Granny]

23. You said it, BOSS. This administration doesn't understand the

concept of diplomacy. They think it's something you deliver on the nose of a MOAB. Truly disgusting.

[BOSSHOG]

24. If you have a strong military

you can negotiate from a position of strength. bush does not want to negotiate with anyone about anything and he is weakening our military on a daily basis to the point where future presidents will not be able to negotiate from a position of strength. And to think this concept does not take a rocket scientist to figure out.

My hate is rational.

How's Arkansas politics going this year Granny? I lived in Fayetteville in the 70's and 80's with Bumpers and Pryor and Clinton and John Paul Hammerschmidt (R). But have lost track of late, although I have no love for your current governor.

[Arkansas Granny]

28. I have no love for the current governor either. There are still

rumors of Huckabee making a bid for the Republican Presidential candidate since he can't run for re-election this year. As far as the race for governor, the latest figures I find show Mike Beebe (D) leading Asa Hutchison (R) by 11 points. No Senate races this year, but the House races are expected to remain mostly Republican.

Bush has a 38% approval rating in Arkansas per the latest Survey USA polls. I don't hear very many people openly supporting his policies these days.

[Rose Siding]

20. He's a liar. We broke diplomatic relations with Iran on April 7, 1980

[dogday]

4. Here it goes again folks

Seems like we danced to this song before :mad:

[librechik]

5. he's awfully cranky--keeps complaining about this one foreign journo

who seems to be asking all the questions--j

he's saying what you would expect--diplomacy blah blah--measures blah blah--security councill blah blah--Iran's continued defiance is a concern blah blah.

Hey wait--"The govt of Iran doesn't seem to weant to hear?" When did we start talking to the govt of Iran??? Oh, we haven't....

[0007]

25. Thanks babe! Missed the fun, I did.

[Norquist Nemesis]

6. He keeps saying "If Iran gives up their nuclear weapons"

over and over and over and over and over

[bigtree]

8. caught that

that needs to be stopped

[helderheid]

10. Iran had nuclear weapons? Since when??

[Norquist Nemesis]

11. He just did it again!

"They say it's for peaceful purposes. The facts do not bear that out." :banghead:

[helderheid]

29. UGH!

[Norquist Nemesis]

9. "Iranian people have long memories"

Bolton: I have views but I'll not express them

[leftchick]

13. he doesn't have to express them

it is there for the world to see in the PNAC web site!

[w8liftinglady]

12. what a lying cock$*cker

[w8liftinglady]

14. am I the only one who can't look at Daryn kagan without thinking of Rush?

how she slept with that drug-addled cretin is beyond me.

[tabasco]

30. Beards don't have to sleep with their employer. n/t

[Sydnie]

15. transcribed the question from my TIVO here

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x1048112

[tridim]

19. Thanks

I was hoping someone would transcribe that.

[underpants]

22. Do we know who the reporter was yet?

:shrug:

[Sydnie]

27. I still don't know

she was responding but not as loudly as I would have liked and not fully on mic from what I could tell. I hope someone reports on the question and gives that info.

[AlCzervik]

16. Could he be any less ambassador like? What a Do*chebag!

[blogslut]

17. The Pendulum has Swung the other Way

Americans are tired of Hawkish thought. Let them puff up. It will backfire.

[tridim]

18. In a sane world it should backfire

But these PNAC'ers don't give a shit. The plan is already set and they will invade Iran, unless we stop them somehow.

[blogslut]

21. spread the word

Tell your friends. Call your Senator or Congressman. Shine the light on the cockroaches.

[0007]

26. When junior goes on vacation why can't Congress and the Senate

appoint a new president and change the locks in our WH house? I know I know....But Goddamn it I don't like the way Bolton slithered in the back door.
