My personal musings about anything that gets on my radar screen--heavily dominated by politics.

On Bolton

President Bush bypassed Congress Monday and appointed John Bolton (search) to be the next U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.

This is not really news. I think everybody and their mother knew that this was coming. What I like is the style: the first business day of the Congressional recess, early in the morning, two or three days after a new eruption of "controversy." This is the President, as has become his style, saying "to Hell with you, obstructionists--this is what I want to do."

Very good style.
