Bolton bids UN buh-bye

Oh happy day. We can close the book on this ugly chapter of history. I guess Bush isn't quite as detached from reality as we thought. Facing an almost certain loss in the Senate, and perhaps fearing the political fallout from another try at an interim appointment, Bush accepted Bolton's resignation with regret.

I expect the only two people who will really miss him are Bush and Bolton's biggest fan, Pam Atlas. I can't bring myself to link to her, but she's devastated. I wonder who she's going to suck up to next?

Could they push Bolton through (amid another recess)?

Bush could have done that as far as I know, but it seems unlikely now that the hapless jerk has resigned.

Bolton's gone? Hooray! That's news to me. Don't let the door smack you in the arse on the way out, John.

That's what I get for ignoring the newspapers for a few weeks.

Thanks Lib, you've made my day :)

LOL Mike. It just happened. But in bigger news, I'm so upset about Greg Wiggle that I can't even blog about it yet.

I held my nose and went to Atlas Drugged. Pammy wants Rick Santorum.

Re Greg Wiggle: Yeah I know :( I heard rumours about the announcement a few days ago. From what I hear the guy who plays Professor Singalottasonga is due to take over for him. That being the case I reckon they'll do fine - he's obviously a professionally trained opera singer with an amazing set of pipes on him. He's not bad on the eyes either - or so the girls tell me.

In the middle of the night last night, I had a really bad thought about the Bolton resignation. And...did I keep it to myself? I did not!

And while we're on the subject, "Santorum"? Bwahahahahahahah!

I had that reaction to Santorum too, on all levels. Pam is just doing the echo chamber thing on him though. She truly LOVED her little Boltie.

That's a joke about Michael Bolton right? Forgive me, I lost my sense of humor in 2000 and am now humor impaired.

Heh. Word verification is gawkq

I rather like it but he might have something to say about it.
