But. . .But. . .What about our right to obstruct???
Oh lordy, the Democrats are ticked off. How dare President Bush use a "recess appointment" to install John Bolton as U.N. ambassador?
Well I'll tell you. . . He dared to do it because the whiny obstructionists who bark "no" blindly at any proposal or initiative offered by the administration wouldn't bring the Bolton nomination to an up or down vote. Sorry folks but we live in a democracy, and just because you Democrats don't want to live up to your responsibility to vote on issues doesn't mean the government stops moving. So the Dems blocked Bolton's appointment with games, and the President shows them who's better at the game. They had their chance and failed.
I expect we'll see great things from Bolton. The U.N. will rebuff him at first, but I don't think that will phase him and I'm sure he'll be a bull in China shop. That's EXACTLY what we need right now! Break some things, get out the broom and clean it up, and then move on with real work.
As for the Democrats' "right to obstruct"? Well, here's the short version, THEY DON'T HAVE ONE.
UPDATE: The DU'ers are positively off their rocker about it.
