It's sickening! 

"Republican In Name Only" (RINO) Senator Lincoln Chafee is about to scuttle the confirmation of John Bolton as Ambassador to the United Nations!

In fact, a vote that was supposed to occur just last week to advance the nomination of John Bolton -- the tough-talking, no-nonsense U.S. Ambassador the United Nations -- DID NOT happen because of Chafee's opposition.

You know Lincoln Chafee! 

He's the Rhode Island Senator who practically inherited his seat from his father -- he has consistently worked AGAINST the conservative agenda that a majority of Americans want. 

Chafee has fought AGAINST tax cuts, he thumbs his nose at demands to control out-of-control spending, he's been a squish on national defense; you name the issue and Chafee's name always comes up as an ally to the liberal opposition! 

And now, he's also the Senator who is working to defeat John Bolton's confirmation!

It's hard to deduce exactly what Chafee is scheming.  Indeed, according to a survey released by the Hudson Institute just this week...

  75% of Americans believe the U.N. is no longer "effective" and "needs to be held more accountable."

 71% believe the U.N. "needs to be considerably reformed."

  67% believe "there are too many undemocratic nations in the U.N. that do not care about promoting democracy and freedom."

 Only 37% believe the U.N. is "effective in PREVENTING wars and military conflicts."

Only 32% believe the UN is "effective in ENDING wars and military conflicts."

And, here's the kicker: A majority of Americans, a whopping 57%, "now believe the United Nations should be scrapped and replaced if it cannot be reformed and made more effective," according to the survey.

John Bolton's views on the United Nations are in step with those of the American people.  And during his recess appointment, Bolton has shown that he won't back down to the U.N. bureaucrats and dictators who hate America.

Lincoln Chafee may THINK he has stopped Bolton's nomination cold.

But Chafee forgot one very important thing.

He forgot about YOU!  He forgot about the diligence of the American people! 

And with your help -- he's going to THINK AGAIN!

One thing is certain:  If Bolton isn't confirmed in the next two weeks -- there is a very good chance that he will be forced to step down and step aside, as his recess appointment will expire soon after Congress adjourns.

And if that happens, liberals like Teddy Kennedy and John Kerry and Kofi Annan will raise their glasses in celebration and whoop and holler with joy!

And we are just not ready to take defeat -- not at the hands of a RINO Senator! 

WE MUST TAKE ACTION RIGHT NOW!  

What's Chafee Up To?

Chafee claims he isn't objecting to Bolton personally.

So why is he opposing Bolton's nomination?  Is it because he disagrees with America's friendship with Israel -- until recently the only democracy in the Middle East? 

In a letter to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Chafee wrote that the Bush "road map" for peace in the Middle East:

"...states clearly that Israel will freeze all settlement activity. Yet, just this week, it is reported that 690 homes will be built in West Bank settlements of Maale Adumim and Betar Illit. While the official US policy has been against settlement activity, no credible observer could think that the US could not do more to stop these new actions."

In the concluding paragraph of this extortion letter, Chafee told Secretary Rice:

"It is my hope that answers will be forthcoming about our policy toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the Committee can reconvene to debate Ambassador Bolton's nomination."

In other words: "If you don't do things my way, Bolton goes down. Period... End of discussion."

Just who does Lincoln Chafee think he is?  Right now John Bolton is more important to the future of this country than Lincoln Chafee will ever be!

And the liberal media, Washington know-it-alls and bloggers are in agreement. They think Chafee has killed the Bolton nomination.

Well -- think again -- because NOW is the time to let Senator Chafee know that the American people are in charge, and we want John Bolton confirmed!

 

Et Tu Chafee?

A year ago, obstructionist liberals blocked Bolton's nomination by threatening a filibuster.

President Bush countered this ploy by giving Bolton an interim appointment.

And the liberals screamed bloody murder:

Ted Kennedy called this appointment an "abuse of power... a devious maneuver... [that] further darkens the cloud over Mr. Bolton's credibility at the U.N."

Harry Reid, Democratic Minority Leader, cried that Bolton was a "seriously flawed and weakened candidate."

Chuck Schumer said the belief that Bolton didn't deserve to be at the United Nations "goes way beyond Democrats and partisan issues."

Obviously Schumer knew something. Because this year, Chafee is doing Schumer and Reid and Kennedy's dirty work for them.

The liberals' long knives were out for a long time, but just as John Bolton's hour of greatest need approached, Chafee sneaked up behind him and stabbed him in the back!

A betrayal like that should NOT go unanswered!

 

Bolton's Loss Is Their Victory!

The loss of Bolton would be good news for One-Worlders, Kofi Annan, Bill and Hillary Clinton, the Council on Foreign Relations and all other worshippers at the shrine of the United Nations.

You see, these U.N. sympathizers hate John Bolton because he's never mouthed the platitudes of the globalists, who have called the United Nations things like -- "the last best hope of mankind," "the peace maker," "the world's problem solver."

In 1994, Bolton gave the best definition of the United Nations ever framed:

"There is no such thing as the United Nations. There is an international community that occasionally can be led by the only real power left in the world, and that is the United States... If the UN secretary building in New York lost ten stories, it wouldn't make a bit of difference."

A majority of the 191 delegates at the U.N. hate America, and they use the world body to bad mouth our nation and undermine freedom around the world. 

Some of them are savage dictators, thieves and murderers. They represent governments that practice genocide, slavery, ritual maiming and the sexual exploitation of women and children.

They take billions of dollars from American taxpayers, yet they vote against us on every issue crucial to our interests and to freedom and liberty around the world.

John Bolton brings no illusions to the United Nations.  He knows the organization is corrupt and malicious, a threat to the very survival of the country he loves.

That's why he must be confirmed in this session of Congress. Otherwise, he cannot continue to serve.
 

The Choice Is Clear:  Kofi Or Bolton!

Kofi Annan has described the United Nations as "the sole source of legitimacy on the use of force."

Bolton has openly challenged that view: "If the United States allows that claim to go unchallenged, its discretion in using force to advance its national interests is likely to be inhibited in the future."

Do we want to give Kofi Annan the only army on the planet Earth? Talk about an evil empire!

Jimmy Carter and Ramsey Clark and Ted Kennedy would do it in a heartbeat.

Other more sensible people fear the United Nations more than death itself.  Some have even called it the Beast of the Apocalypse.

Maybe that's why Sen. Jesse Helms, as chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee -- once said of John Bolton: "[He] is the kind of man with whom I would want to stand at Armageddon, if it should be my lot to be on hand for what is forecast to be the final battle between good and evil in this world."

We want an Ambassador at the United Nations who will make certain the Battle of Armageddon isn't fought on American soil.  The American people want someone who is tough and who will stand up to the hate-America crowd at the United Nations.

John Bolton is that man.

He said even before he joined up with President Bush:

"Many Republicans in Congress -- and perhaps a majority -- not only do not care about losing the General Assembly vote but actually see it as a 'make-my-day' outcome. Indeed once the vote is lost... this will simply provide further evidence to many why nothing should be paid to the UN system."

Bolton has a healthy distrust of the organization and a fierce contempt for its pretensions.

That's why the Left worldwide fears him.

And that's why we must have him back in the United Nations.
