The AP (in addition to CBS News) is reporting that Bush will use a recess appointment to name John Bolton as U.S. ambassador to the U.N. next week.
So all the dirt about his connection to the Valerie Plame leak is not very important in the eyes of the Bubble Boy. Nor does he have the spine to risk confirmation hearings.
What a pussy.

That’s how he’s making sure Bolton keeps his mouth shut?
So, can a UN Ambassador be impeached? What happens if he’s convicted of treason? So much new ground to cover with the Bushistas!
You’re absolutely right, he’s a puss.
And he’s a big believer that the office makes the man, not that the man makes the office.
Plame is, once again, using the five year law for OOs (or in the case of Plames OOPs) returning from overseas ooperations to attack The White House and anyone is is not a dem.
Its funny Bolton is being investigated under a 5 year investigation law.
pussy says it all…
