United Nation Wind Section

The State Department's former intelligence chief yesterday described John R. Bolton, President Bush's nominee for ambassador to the United Nations, as a "bully" who abused his authority and power, intimidated intelligence analysts, and lulled office mates to sleep with the smooth sounds of his alto-saxophone. Political Bits can think of no one better than a sax playing bully to represent America to the UN. Who knows what could happen if Bolton brings out the big guns and does a duet with his brother Michael? Did some one say peace in the Middle East?
