Mr. Moustache Rides to the UN

And just in time for Mr. Bush to head back to Crawford, TX for his much deserved vacation after all his hard work. Here's how the London Guardian reports the news:

 
Bush bypasses Senate to install neo-con at UN

The US president, George Bush, today bypassed the senate and installed the controversial neo-conservative John Bolton as ambassador to the UN.

Mr Bush took advantage of his power to fill vacancies without senate approval while Congress is in recess. Under the constitution, Mr Bolton's recess appointment during the senators' August break will last until the next session of Congress, which begins in January 2007.

"He will provide clear US leadership for reform," Mr Bush said. "He will insist on results. He believes in the goals of the UN, in peace and human rights."
