Shocking new Bolton revelation

Some of Bolton's former subordinates have a high opinion of him. Former assistant attorney general and fomer Bolton deputy Thomas M. Boyd thinks Bolton's the man for the UN job:

While it is certainly true that Bolton sometimes breaks china, it is also true that he carefully selects the pattern first.

Boyd then explains how Bolton made the improbable a reality. Read the whole thing.

What's really shocking is that this pro-Bolton article is in the Boston Globe.


Update: Even Maureen Dowd is speaking up for Bolton:

Who doesn't want to see Bolton chasing the Syrian ambassador down the hall, with a flame-thrower?

Who doesn't want to see him machine-gun the Iranian mullahs?

Who doesn't want to see him once more using National Security Agency eavesdropping technology, this time to spy on Kofi and son?

Who doesn't want to see him outrage North Korea by calling Kim Jong Il a fat, maniacal munchkin?

I did edit that a little but it does seem to me she's softening her position, just a little.
