Bolton And The UN
[Patrick Appel]
I enjoyed Brian Urquhart's review of John Bolton's new book, probably more than I would enjoy the book itself:
Bolton is not a neocon. His political passions were ignited
in his teens by Barry Goldwater, and he has always been a "libertarian
conservative." He thinks that "our emphasis must be more on liberty
than democracy... the first being freedom from government, the second
being one way to select governments."[1] It is small wonder that he
doesn't much like the United Nations, which consists of 192
governments. It says much about the Bush administration that someone
with his views could be appointed UN ambassador.
