I'd be happy to see this as long as he scrubs the place clean.

There are likely still some senior staffers left over from the Clinton Administration that need to go, to say nothing of this recent regime.

From Amato's keyboard to God's ears! Bolton would be a stellar Secretary of State. And the sound of liberal heads exploding would be the sweetest icing on the cake.

Can you imagine the confirmation hearings?

Demo's would be in terrible panty twist, Bolton knows more about international relations than the entire Obama Administration combined.

Yes!

Bob Zoellick is a more likely choice...

Just what the doctor ordered!

But America's enemies like the Deomcrats and Iran won't like it.

Do not forget that Bolton's nomination to the UN ambassador position was blocked by democrats in the senate,and they pulled out all the stops in the confirmation hearing.
They even offered a woman as witness who, when working with bolton in the private sector, said he raised his voice to her.
So President Bush made an interim appointment for Bolton, which upon expiration, caused him to leave the UN position.

one could only hope,,,

Just what we need - another neocon. More Bush era stupidity and duplicity.

Couldn't be a better nominee. Get the females out of there. The muslim countries don't like females but both parties keep putting them in that position. Is there any functioning brains in DC?

Bolton as SoS works for me!

Music to my ears.

#10, please define what you mean by "neocon". Is it an all-purpose pejorative (like "RINO")?

Great choice for SOS.
Hr must clean out the leftist swamp-starting with Lamb and Kennedy.
They dithered while four Americans could still have been rescued or the savages made to pay.

Hey, #10, aren't you on the wrong site? This sounds like a comment from someone whom the Regime would call the "tin foil hat" club.

He would be perfect. Read "Surrender Is Not
An Option". By John Bolton

He is so knowledgeable about world affairs and knows all the players from experience.
He would be an excellent choice.

When I see Bolton on tv, everything else is set aside and I listen closely. If Bolton says it, it means something.

On top of that, I like the Samuel Clemens look.

One can only hope!

I hope so. To use an old cliche, he has more knowledge in his little finger than the others (I won't even mention Hillary or Kerry, who is hoping to be SoS in the next Obama regime). And he has great reasoning ability and common sense. He is no fool.

I've been wishing and praying for Bolton to be named SOS for years. Even instead of Condi Rice. We have to get the women out of that position. The muslim world does not respect women and to have such highly placed female representatives of the US gov't is merely a PC move.

Re the WH understanding of radicalism - I truly believe that rather than misunderstanding islamic radicalism, they fully perceive the threat - and support it...

Yessss.
As for the Senate confirmation...we don't need no stinkin' confirmation.
Obama has decided he can do everything by Executive Order and preempt Congress, and Roment should tell the Dem senators to shove it.

#10 often seems to be on the wrong site.

If you think the invasions and occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan were good ideas, and were beneficial to the interests of the United States (and worth the enormous costs) I will concede that one of us should be wearing a tin foil hat, so to speak. And yes, "neocon" is a very pejorative term. Remember that the neocons sidled up to Clinton before they found the ultimate suckers (or knaves) in the Bush family.

I would be delighted with that choice- if Romney has the guts to put a real man in that slot. For sure, Bolton would clean house on day one!

Bolton for SoS, and
Rudy for AG, and
Sheriff Joe for the FBI.

Besides JB as SoS. how about Kudlow as Sec Treas, Palin as Sec Energy, Cain as Sec Commerce. Message to all appointees....Clean the Swamp!

Works for me.

I agree absolutely.

Last year at this time, Gingrich was encouraging Bolton to run for the White House.
Cain loves him.

Certainly not a Kissinger lemming.

yesssssssssss. He would be terrific.

Why do people insist on barging on to forum threads and arguing with expressed opinions? Argue my facts; leave my opinions alone. They are mine. And right now we are all pretty busy trying to get Obie out of the White House.

Yes, please.

#10/#24:

I’d wear the title of ‘NeoCon’ as a badge of honor!

Please ‘insult’ me so I can sleep with a smile on my face tonight knowing I’ve been endowed.

You seem to forget that Afghanistan was a safe haven for Al-Qaida in 2011.

You seem to forget that Iraq was paying $10K to families of Arab suicide bombers that were killing Jews in 2011.

You seem to forget that Iraq was a prolific user of chemical and biological weapons and was more than capable of giving them away to the badest of guys in 2011.

Maybe we need a chem/bio attack on Disneyland on Christmas Day to get you to see the light, assuming that is, your head can be extracted from the place where it can’t see light even on the brightest of days!

Kafir

PS: You are voting for the ‘One’ aren’t you?

I trust John Bolton. I'll be disappointed with ANYONE else.

OOPS: Re #34, That should have been 2001 not 2011.

Kafir
