The mustache is his undoing. He's smart, he is a ferocious debater, the 'stash gives me a headache.

"Bolton has been a prominent participant in some neoconservative groups such as the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA), and the Committee for Peace and Security in the Gulf (CPSG).

'Nuff said.
Bolton/Palin in 2012. This Democrat would LOVE a ticket like that!
What began as a whisper campaign months ago is now being openly discussed among conservatives, and that is the possibility that former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton could potentially become a sleeper candidate for President in 2012 on the Republican ticket.

Boltons credentials are stellar. While serving at the U.N. he was a fearless and sometimes controversial crusader for American interests at an institution that has major credibility problems with its overt promotion of extremist Islamic groups and nations.
As a stalwart proponent of liberty, Bolton made it clear that it is not in U.S. interests to support Communists in Cuba, Venezuela, or North Korea, nor the overt push in the EU toward socialism, which has brought the entire continent to the brink of economic collapse.
Instead, along with a few other members of the Bush Administration Bolton emphasized the strategic importance of aligning ourselves with eastern European countries that had suffered under the relentless oppression of Marxism/Communism and had tasted the sweet victory of human freedom with the demise of the Soviet Union.
These nations, such as the Czech Republic, the Ukraine, Poland, and others became allies of the U.S. due to our dogged determination during the Cold War to liberate oppressed persons in Europe from the heavy jackboot to the throat, compliments of the Communists.
john r. Bolton - wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
bolton withheld information that ran counter to his goals from secretary of state colin powell on multiple occasions, and from powell's successor condoleezza rice on at least one occasion.[36]
according to a scripps howard news service article, bolton "wanted to say that cuba had a biological weapons capacity and that it was exporting it to other nations. The intelligence analysts seemed to want to limit the assessment to a declaration that cuba 'could' develop such weapons."[38] according to alternet, a progressive/liberal activist news service, bolton attempted to have the chief bioweapons analyst in the state department's bureau of intelligence and research and the cia's national intelligence officer for latin america reassigned. under oath at his senate hearings for confirmation as ambassador, he denied trying to have the men fired, but seven intelligence officials contradicted him.[26] ultimately, "intelligence officials refused to allow bolton to make the harsh criticism of cuba he sought to deliver,"[38] and were able to keep their positions. bolton claims that the issue was procedural rather than related to the content of his speech and that the officers, who did not work under him, behaved unprofessionally.
also on may 11, newsweek reported allegations that the american position at the 7th review conference in may 2005[64] of the nuclear proliferation treaty had been undercut by bolton's "absence without leave" during the nomination fight, quoting anonymous sources "close to the negotiations".[65]
in three episodes of fox news in may and june 2008, bolton suggested that israel might attack iran after us elections in november.
sounds like a neocon to me.
