Actually, we have an excess of abusive, manipulative, right-wing, bull-in-a-china-shop type liars at the moment. Maybe come back in a couple of months. You never know...demand might pick up...

Agree Silas, I like him a lot too. He projects a US that I believe to be appropriate in the world, but doesn't state things we couldn't back up.

My God that man is retarded. We'd end up with two Iraqs. Amadenijad doesn't even really have power over the millitary and his overlords are less radical... do people not understand this? He's an unpopular, weak religious fanatic leader (nothing on Saddam) who says stupid things and doesn't have the power to follow up on them, so that means we should blow up his country? Do we want to start policing 2 civil wars now, instead of one? How do you think our "friendly" Shiite government in Iraq would feel about this benevolent excursion, you know? The one that was supposed to be a "beacon of democracy to the Middle East?" Maybe now Iran can fill that dream?

"Bolton said that the fact that only partial intelligence about Iran's nuclear activity existed should not be used as an excuse not to act."

Sound mildly familiar to anyone? I guess the guy's still a true believer... No, wait, I forgot... in Iraq they didn't just have "partial evidence," they had "undeniable, 100% solid evidence."

Also, if I sound pissy it's because I just woke up...

can you elaborate with facts on this description of bolton or is this more of your (if you throw enough sh*t some will stick) debate tactics.

Can you explain to me why you think we need another war, invasion, or insurgence? And why you think Mr. Bolton was dropped from his position as US Ambassador?

Curious!

Bolton is terriffic. He's tough, smart, assertive, well informed and not afraid to speak his mind. This country can never have enough of men and women like him.

This is another example of where the left has it all a@@ backwards (again). They hate him for all of the reasons stated above so they try to paint him as a radical extremist, which he is not. He's simply a brilliant guy whose perspective is an enormous asset to this country as wells as to the world.

of course i can only give you my opinion,we are currently at war with Iran in Iraq, but we are pretending, that nobody knows that the neighbor mans been sneeking over and messin with the wife! we dont need an invasion, war or insurgence. " does any one really believe that we could not end (win) the war in Iraq in a week if we wanted to?" we have been ***** footing all over the desert trying to fight a politically correct war which is exactly why we need people like Bolton and why he is no longer ambassador.Just too politically incorrect! We have lost so much credibility , because all we do is talk talk talk , when we do draw a line in the sand, and they cross it we just draw another line!

We're currently at war with IRAQ in Iraq. Do we need to overthrow that democratically elected government and have a new "regime change" there too? I guess we can keep it going forever if we want. Isn't it like a little under 50% of Iraqis or so who think it's "sometimes justified" to kill American troops? I wonder what a good way to increase that number would be... wait... I know! Let's attack Iran! We don't need those Shiite ingrates on our side.

So, should we just sit back and cross our fingers that Iran doesn't develop a nuke? And if they do, then what? Hope the insane nutcase who is their President doesn't decide to use it?
