Another ex-colleague criticizes Bolton
Bush's UN nominee a 'no-talent assclown.'

"Bolton has none of the qualities needed for that job," Frederick Vreeland, a former US ambassador to Morocco, said in an e-mail to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. "On the contrary, he has all the qualities needed to harm the image and objectives in the UN and its affiliated international organizations. If it is now US policy not to reform the UN but to destroy it, Bolton is our man."

Vreeland, who worked with Bolton in the early 1990s under Bush-the-only-slightly-smarter, said Bolton "dealt with visitors to his office as if they were servants with whom he could be dismissive, curt and negative."

"He spoke of the UN as being the enemy," Vreeland added. "If there's a bigger twat in Washington I sure as hell don't want to know about it."
