Bolton blasts Obama speech
Former US ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton blasted President Obama's Nobel acceptance speech in Oslo on Thursday. “It followed the standard international leftist line,” says Bolton. “He played to the crowd and filled the speech with clichés from the American and international left by saying ‘America cannot act alone’ and that he ‘prohibited torture.’ The speech was also typical of Obama in its self-centeredness and ‘something for everybody’ approach.”And to think that some people actually fall for that stuff.
“It was so diffuse that though I wouldn’t call it incoherent, it was getting close,” says Bolton. “It was a lot about him, again, especially with his comments about being at the ‘beginning, not end’ of his labors for the world.”
Obama made some “breathtakingly simpleminded statements in his section on humanity’s history of war and the ‘hard truth’ that war will not end in our lifetimes,” adds Bolton. “No kidding. I don’t know what that is supposed to prove.”

And to think that President Bush didn't have this man's back when it mattered! Well, at least Bolton makes the round on news shows. Even the Left can't ignore this man. Obama must really hate him.
The Nobel Committee gave an award to a man who just ordered a major expansion of the Afghan War. They're just beyond shame and embarrassment in Oslo. And they went ahead knowing full well Obama is not going to bring peace to the world during his time in office.
What comes around goes around.
