The Bolton Recess Appointment

An interesting insight on the Bolton recess appointment from Bradford Short at The Thing Is:
... But you all at home should think about this: the work of groups like C-FAM [Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute] here at the U.N. becomes tremendously easier (or, rather, less hard) when people like George Bush are in the White House and they get to send men like John Bolton to the U.N. People who don't care about what “global common sense” (read: elite global opinion) is on issues like disarmament also tend to be the people who do not care what global common sense is on abortion. Those people in America today are almost 100% conservative Republicans-and without them running the American Permanent Mission to the U.N., groups like C-FAM spend more time fighting our own government than we do dealing with any other government.
