Anyone else feel this way about him? He seems like he has a severe case of butt hurt. Always did seem a bit of a loose cannon to me.

A repeat of the McStain phenomenon.Ther Democrats seem to have developed short term memory loss on John Bolton.
Colin Powell’s Former Chief Of Staff Calls John Bolton An “Abysmal” Pick To Be UN Ambassador

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee is expected to vote on Bolton’s nomination as early as today. We talk to Steve Clemons of the TheWashingtonNote.com and John Nichols of The Nation about a series of allegations concerning Bolton abusing his authority at the State Department and Bolton’s role in securing George W. Bush’s victory during the 2000 Florida recount.
A vote on the nomination of John Bolton to serve as President Bush”s ambassador to the United Nations is scheduled for today. The New York Times reports the top Democrat on the Committee — Joseph Biden of Delaware —–is planning to ask the vote be delayed.
A series of new allegations of Bolton abusing his power at the State Department have emerged since the committee last met. Much of the two-days of hearings last week focused on allegations that Bolton threatened intelligence analysts who disagreed with him and sought to have them removed after they challenged his claims about security threats posed by various countries.
Since then, reports have emerged that — during his time at the State Department — Bolton often blocked then-Secretary of State Colin Powell and, on one occasion, his successor, Condoleezza Rice, from receiving information vital to U.S. strategies on Iran. Powell was not among a group of five Republican former secretaries of state who sent the committee a letter that endorsed Bolton”s nomination. On Monday, Powell’s former chief of staff Lawrence Wilkerson spoke out in opposition to Bolton. He told the New York Times “He is incapable of listening to people and taking into account their views. He would be an abysmal ambassador.”
During last week’s hearings, Bolton acknowledged making 10 requests, over four years, for names of U.S. officials whose conversations with foreigners were monitored by the National Security Agency.
Every Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is expected to vote against Bolton. If one Republican joins them, Bolton’s confirmation will be blocked. Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island has said he is uncommitted, and over the weekend, Senator Chuck Hagel of Nebraska said he had some reservations. But the panel’s Republican chairman, Senator Richard Lugar of Indiana, said he expects all 10 Republicans ultimately to vote in favor of the nomination.
X1000!!! He was fucking PERFECT for that job. Lots of LOLs from his tenure there. They HATED him!The only job I ever liked him for was un ambassador. That was a big fuck you to the un.
Has anyone listened to any of the House Testimony live or have you been listening to the Senate trial live?
VooDoo
I agree with that! But I think JB has never seen any better policy but war.The only job I ever liked him for was un ambassador. That was a big fuck you to the un.
could not stomach house nonsense. gets my trigger finger twitching. the senate gives me some hope. dershowitz was absolutely brilliant, along with sechulow. good to have a few jews on your side for a change!Has anyone listened to any of the House Testimony live or have you been listening to the Senate trial live?
VooDoo
reminds me of McCain(hopefully resting not too peacefully)I'm having fun watching both sides twist themselves into knots as they frantically revise their opinion of the man.
It's unclear to me why Trump ever brought Bolton into his inner circle in the first place, considering that the men seem to have little common ground. Maybe this is an example of why hitting someone just because he pisses off the political opposition isn't necessarily a great idea.
Bolton, for his part, is demonstrating that he's a classless asshole. If nothing else, his behavior hopefully guarantees that he'll never again find employment in a position of influence and power.
I agree, Alan impressed me as he put the Country and the Constitution first.could not stomach house nonsense. gets my trigger finger twitching. the senate gives me some hope. dershowitz was absolutely brilliant, along with sechulow. good to have a few jews on your side for a change!
And he has been saying it for years. Well before he was Trump's counsel. Remember that he still voted for Hilary though.I must say I was absolutely surprised at what a Democrat had to say about about what his party was trying to do. There might be hope yet,...
I have shot with an shoot with guys that voted for her. Had one class where 3 of the 8 voted for her also, there could have been more but those 3 balled up, an owned their vote.And he has been saying it for years. Well before he was Trump's counsel. Remember that he still voted for Hilary though.
Lol that website is like the exact opposite of reputablemaybe, but if he testifies, the dems lose.
btw, his book was denied release. whoever leaked is in trouble if they find out (vindman!)

Better yet why has he not been charged with treason, Did the publisher or all of the proof readers, press operators, hold a clearance? I think not. Fry his ass a drain the swamp a little more. He is nothing but a shill for the MIC.If John Bolton put classified info in his book, he knew it and did it on purpose. It was put there to be leaked. So now my question would be, why?
His voting record?...I can't think of a time when Mr. Dershowitz did not put the Constitution ahead of his personal opinions.
Since he's not an elected official, we'll have to guess at what that is.His voting record?...

True.Since he's not an elected official, we'll have to guess at what that is.
True.
As he's a registered Dem and said he voted for Hillary and would for Biden.
Odds are he pulls the blue lever.

5D chess?What if this Bolton leak was planned by Trump, Bolton etc knowing full well it wasn't true, and the MSM etc would completely froth at the mouth, bite even the most obvious bait?
yupI don't buy it, because it's way too 5D chess. I believe Trump when he says they didn't part well, and it was his own fault.
One thing is for sure, if Bolton does try to throw mud in the water and bolster the Demonrats case he will never work for a Republican in Washington again, and since he is reviled by the left that pretty much means he's done period.
There was tape released just this morning of lying Adam Schiff saying Bolton was a lying bastard and nothing he says is credible. In a land of liars and hypocrites Schiff stands out beyond all of them. He may be the most shameless, lying son-of-a-bitch in American history.
I guess I just thought he was a shill for the Clinton’s. Bill did lie under oath to cover up another crime, or at least make it seem there was no pattern.I can't think of a time when Mr. Dershowitz did not put the Constitution ahead of his personal opinions.
