* wapo: "Reaching back into history, Bush repeatedly cited Roosevelt's steadfastness as the model for today's conflict, comparing the Japanese sneak assault on Pearl Harbor in 1941 to the al Qaeda terrorist attacks on New York and Washington on Sept. 11, 2001. Much as Roosevelt fought pre-Pearl Harbor isolationism, Bush urged against a return to what he called the "pre-9/11 mindset of isolation and retreat.""
hows that for some serious gymnastics?
* "Bolton outlined his positions in a series of letters to U.N. delegates participating in negotiations... (urging) the deletion of language calling on nations to prevent "incitement" of mass atrocities, saying it runs counter to the U.S. First Amendment protections of speech."(link)
good fucking grief.
* reed hundt: " I know John Bolton; I went to school with him; I like him personally; his views are sincerely and passionately held... Those in the Senate who favor the continuation of the United Nation and a constructive role for the United States in the UN had better act very soon" (link)
* note to china: today would be a good idea to invade taiwan, if that was something you were planning
