Sen. George Voinovich explains in a Washington Post op-ed why he will vote to confirm U.N. ambassador John Bolton if (really, when) President Bush nominates Bolton when his recess appointment expires. Voinovich’s opposition was the main reason why Bolton could not be confirmed last time around.
Kudos to the Senator for keeping an open mind (in the spirit of good-will, we won’t examine his explanation for now supporting Bolton). And bravo to President Bush for sticking to his guns and sending Bolton to Turtle Bay, where he has been a credit to the administrtion and the nation.
