Personally, I felt Bolton was an "in your face" choice for our UN representative and just another example of the "go it alone" foreign policy of this administration. I'm not an unconditional supporter of the UN, but I prefer that they are "with us rather than agin' us."
As UN Envoy has Bolton done or said something you disagreed with or that you found offensive?

What type of person would you want, someone more like former President Carter, a person who is weak in the eyes of other nations? I will take an "in your face" kind of guy when the stakes are as high as they are.
