Bolton blocks UN envoy from discussing human rights violations

Who would have guessed that Bolton would have turned out to be such an ass? In an attempt to make some kind of point that nobody else can really see except himself, Bolton teamed up with perennial human rights supporters China, Russia and Algeria to stop the briefing that was requested by Kofi Annan. China, who has recently discovered the classic US option of playing the leave-no-oil-dictator/torturer/murderer behind card has been making every effort possible to work with thugs that even the West won't touch, such as the government of Sudan. Is this what Bolton and the wingnuts are trying to accomplish? More trading partners for China instead of human rights accountability?

Nicely played. Oh what a breath of fresh air at the UN and I can see the peaceful results right around the corner. Right next to the crushing victory in Iraq.
