Michael Rubin: "An apology owed to John Bolton". Too funny.
An apology owed to John Bolton

The most recent Iran NIE confirms that Iran was actively pursuing a nuclear weapon back in 2003. Forgotten in much of the recent press coverage is that this proves John Bolton, at the time was undersecretary of state for Arms Control, correct. Many of the people under and around him, perhaps fearing that his analysis might get in the way of their initiatives, attacked him and leaked anonymously in the press to undermine him. And yet, now we know that Bolton was right. It seems that a number of journalists, diplomats, and Senate staffers owe Mr. Bolton an acknowledgment, if not an apology.

1. I have never once heard anyone apologize to Yosemite Sam...
I think it would be a terrible precedent to start.

4. Until Bolton gets out his 300 page list of apologies...
Edited on Mon Dec-10-07 08:53 PM by SalmonChantedEvening
And reads at least 200 pages of them on the air somewhere, this one owed him can wait.

The Chronological list John. I believe it starts in the 2nd grade.

6. Gosh!
How can we make it right? What can we do to make this okay? How about bombing Iran? Will John forgive us if we start a world war as a peace offering, of sorts?
