Why did Bush go ahead and appoint Bolton?

Poll question: Why did Bush go ahead and appoint Bolton?

[Rabrrrrrr]

1. Both 1 and 2 PLUS he's an evil shitbagging dominionist fuckbag

who has as much respect for the Constitution, for America, for Jesus, for God, for the Bible, for the Church, and for us, as he has for the brush he constantly feels the need to expurgate from his property.

[Spock_is_Skeptical]

Yep, that's it exactly.

[tridim]

2. "...just so long as I'm the dictator"

-GW fuckhead

[iconoclastic cat]

3. So we can start a war with Iran.

[Ksec]

4. Spoiled child syndrome carrying over into adulthood.

He doesnt like the word no. His Mommy and Daddy never told him no and the bad Democrats arent going to tell him no either.

"Bush stomping and screaming while rolling around on the floor in a temper tantrum"

[FloridaPat]

5. Looks like we're going to drop a nuclear bomb on Iran the next time

the neocons perform a terrorist act on the US. He needs someone he can trust to yell louder then the UN people that believe in rule of law. He needs someone to justify it to the world. He needs someone to destroy the UN so he is not tried as a war criminal.

[undeterred]

6. Bush is a born cheater

He knows he could never get him past the Senate. Mr. "I'm a Uniter not a Divider" always does the most divisive thing he can... and smirks about it.

7. I voted pur ego, but I call it ARROGANCE!

Sure it's ego, but I think there is more Arrogance involved. He LOVES being able to look at the Dems and STICK IT IN THEIR EYE!

[Quixote1818]

8. You are right. I hope you don't mind if I change the wording

with your suggestion.

[napi21]

9. Hey, no prob. This is a public forum.

[Mountainman]

10. Bush does not deserve the credit. Gutting the UN has been a right wing

dream ever since Goldwater ran for president. This is just a part of the wing nut agenda and Bush happens to be the sock puppet in the White House at the time when it can be done.

[Quixote1818]

11. You are probably right but now Bolton is damaged goods

and won't have any effect on the UN at all. At this point ego is all that is left as their plan is in tatters.

[napi21]

12. Can the UN continue wothout the US?

I know their headquarters is in NY, but I also remember that the US didn't pay their dues for a very long time.

Is it possible for Shrub & Bolton to completely divorce the US from the UN, and finalize the rest of the World will HATE US?

[KamaAina]

14. The UN has a standing invitation to relocate to Montreal

makes all kinds of sense, when you think about it: it's the largest city in the world with speakers of both English and French, the UN's two official languages, plus it has a humongous international airport with flights all over the place.

Learned that one right her on DU, from Maple.

[napi21]

15. WELL! Maybe Shrub will get his wish, and the UN will leave the US.

Then he can pretend to really be royalty like he wishes! The us will be all alone, and maybe we'll all have to learn chinese when China calls their investments.

God, I'm glad I'm old. Hopefully I won't live to see it!

[Mr_Spock]

13. Because Bushitstain likes to make the US look like a bunch of morons

like he is. What a fucking ass hole.

[njdemocrat106]

16. Both 2 and 4

He's an arrogant child, and he wants to go to war with Iran. If a terrorist attack happens soon, and Bush says it's Iran's fault, it's definitely a MIHOP conspiracy.

[Pam-Moby]

17. I voted for

Pure Arrognace - Bush is a spoiled brat who was so upset he lost he wanted to push his power around even though he now knows Bolton's effectiveness will be non existent.
But I feel the reason was because Bush knows that Bolton will do whatever he wants him to do.

[hatrack]

18. Because the other boys laughed at his tiny pee-pee in gym class

I think that pretty much tells you all you need to know! :evilgrin:
