I’ve never been a huge fan of Undersecretary of State for Arms Control John Bolton. When the North Koreans banned him from the multi-party talks, the first thing I thought was, “Wow. They’re finally taking a constructive approach toward these negotiations.” However that may be, Bolton’s comments in Paris today take the cake. About Saddam and WMD … “Whether he possessed them today or four years ago isn’t really the issue.” Or this: “The issue I think has been the capability that Iraq sought to have … WMD programs.”
So many issues, so little time.
