Why John Bolton Is Right for the United Nations

Brett D. Schaefer of The Heritage Foundation opines:

If you tilt your head to the left, you may be deafened by the cries of woe over President Bush’s decision to nominate John Bolton as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. According to The New York Times, "Mr. Bolton stands out because he is not only bad in policy sense, but also unqualified for the post." Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., noted that Bolton’s "antipathy to the U.N. will prevent him from effectively discharging his duties as our ambassador."
