Department of Delusion


One of the right's most prominent neocons, John "The 'Stache" Bolton, says that he could win the Rethuglican nomination for President in 2012. [Pause for gentle chuckling]

The 'Stache, who looks like Wilford Brimley and acts like Yosemite Sam, was the failed U.S. Ambassador to the UN who wants to put the UN out of business, and who (like other neocons) used knowingly false assumptions to justify the war in Iraq. He typifies the attitude on the far right that negotiations and diplomacy are a waste of time, and that the use of military force should be our first resort, not our last. Good luck with that message.
