UK begging for Bolton relief

aw, man... this is PRECISELY the kind of shit that we knew goddam good and well would happen once that s.o.b. serial abuser parked his ass at the u.n. and started demolition operations... the u.k. covered major u.s. butt in iraq but do you think we're gonna return the favor...? do ya, huh, do ya, huh, huh...????
The British government is mounting a huge diplomatic effort this weekend to prevent the biggest-ever summit of world leaders, designed to tackle poverty and overhaul the United Nations, ending in chaos.

The Guardian has learned that Jack Straw, the foreign secretary, has made a personal plea to his American counterpart, Condoleezza Rice, for the US to withdraw opposition to plans for wholesale reform of the UN. He has asked Ms Rice to rein in John Bolton, the US ambassador to the world body.

Mr Bolton has thrown the reform negotiations into disarray by demanding a catalogue of late changes to a 40-page draft document which is due to go before the summit in New York on Wednesday.

there were those who said that bolton would behave in a lower key after receiving a recess appointment without senate confirmation... you gotta be kiddin'... bushco doesn't let a little thing like LEGITIMACY slow 'em down and you can be SURE they aren't asking bolton to step on the brakes... after all, he's got a major deconstruction job ahead of him...
