Bye bye Bolton...!

Woke up to good news this morning:
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4 — President Bush reluctantly accepted the resignation of the United Nations ambassador, John R. Bolton, on Monday, conceding that the envoy could not win Senate confirmation and signaling that the administration was unwilling to make another end run around Congressional opponents in order to keep Mr. Bolton in his job.
And so, slowly, recovery from the formidable damage done by Bush begins.

And The Decider isn't happy, his words belying his recently stated desire to promote bipartisanship.
“They chose to obstruct his confirmation, even though he enjoys majority support in the Senate, and even though their tactics will disrupt our diplomatic work at a sensitive and important time,” Mr. Bush said. “This stubborn obstructionism ill serves our country, and discourages men and women of talent from serving their nation.”
Ahhh, Mr President Lameduck McPeevish, I suggest you get used to it. You and yours are on their way out!!!
