Bolton: ‘I didn’t take any courses at all on int’l law.’
Purporting to give the “cold hard truth about international organizations” while speaking to students at Yale University yesterday, conservative hawk John Bolton said that the United States is the only country “that’s going to stop nuclear proliferation and the threats presented by Iran and North Korea.” Bolton, who once served as UN ambassador, said that when he was at Yale, he “didn’t take any courses at all on international law” and added, “frankly I don’t think I missed a thing.”

“frankly I don’t think I missed a thing.â€
Just the Brain Delivery Reunion.
February 15th, 2008 at 11:47 amYeah, why would international law matter when dealing with other countries?
February 15th, 2008 at 11:48 amWhat a spectacular choice for UN Ambassador. I’m glad to see that his utter contempt is not only reserved for the United Nations, but extends to the 5.7 billion people in this world who are not United Statesians.
February 15th, 2008 at 11:48 amHas Bolton followed through on his threat to blow up the U.N. building yet?
A∞Ω

No kidding.

Ahhh, the little fishes again.
Hey, Bolton, take the shot with Russia and China.
February 15th, 2008 at 11:52 amAbout says it all. Shove him off in a rowboat without any oars and let the sharks take care of him. Sharks don’t follow internaitonal law either.

No, that is God.

How does one become an enabler to an abstract concept, exactly? Is it like being a personal assistant to hubris or something?

Daryll has the shakes this morning. What he meant to say was ” I DON’T know one thing about Mr. Bolton.”

Yeah, but it’s hysterically funny.
February 15th, 2008 at 12:06 pmhe “didn’t take any courses at all on international law†and added, “frankly I don’t think I missed a thing.â€
Honest to goodness, the best course I ever did at university was International Law.
But I understand why Bolton might not be interested, putting constraints on the use of military force and elevating the rights of the individual just really isn’t his thing.
February 15th, 2008 at 12:06 pm“didn’t take any courses at all on international law†and added, “frankly I don’t think I missed a thing.â€
Well, if he never intended to follow international law then he probably didn’t miss anything he’ll need.

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary
safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not
February 15th, 2008 at 12:09 pmhave, nor do they deserve, either one.
— President Thomas Jefferson. 1743-1826
Wouldn’t that remark, made to an audience at a university he attended be, somewhat of a slap in the face, if you will?
February 15th, 2008 at 12:10 pmSee? Daryll is a parody.

Saint Daryll, the Constitution Hater
Your support for trashing the Constitution makes Bin Laden the winner. His entire MO was to have Bush scurry under the table and lash out at the entire Muslim world, and have us give up our freedom so’s we wouldn’t be askeert.

If we torture our captives, then our soldiers will be tortured when captured. By not torturing we set an example for the rest of the world and are able to put pressure on other countries to treat our troops well when they are captured.
Also, torture has been PROVEN not to work.

They’re not criminals until they’re put on trial and convicted by a jury. Until then, they’re merely suspects.
February 15th, 2008 at 12:24 pmJuan C I think you just made Daryll piss himself again. Bolton has had his hands dirty since his behind the scenes work in the Iran Contra scandals. He’s got his nose deep up the asses of such wholesome groups as PNAC, the AEI and JINSA (maybe they like the way his mustache tickles their collective taints. If that’s not enough, he is a second cousin to Michael Bolton (you wanna talk about torture/terror try listening to some of his crap). All in all this longtime fascist and supporter of the Zionist cause deserves nothing but ridicule for his years of bullying and blind devotion to the special interest groups he so avidly supports. He is no patriot and cares not for the advancement of the American populace. His interests lie solely in his advancement of fascist causes.
February 15th, 2008 at 12:24 pmThis Daryll is either a bad satirist,or completly loonie.I suspect the latter.
February 15th, 2008 at 12:24 pmHey wait, Daryll. By your logic, the teachings of Jesus would be invalid because, after all, that was then and this is now.

February 15th, 2008 at 12:26 pmSo George Soros is less credible or worth listening to than a perverted , lying bubblehead ?
I know there’s been some debate about this, but I don’t think Daryll is a parody.
I can see why some would come to that conclusion. But I think Daryll’s just a particularly dim bulb who thinks that by repeating the same right-wing talking points over and over, he can convince the rest of us where we’re wrong.
Hence the “dim bulb” conclusion.
February 15th, 2008 at 12:27 pmActually, Daryll, you do seem to get excited.

The experts all say… torture doesn’t work. So what purpose does it serve? Just punishment? (pssst… that makes us just like them…)
Or is it easier on your “Christian conscience” **cough** to just drop white phosphorus on them from above, so’s you don’t have to look first hand at the grotesque results of your actions?

It wouldn’t. But it would take away several of the talking points they use to recruit impressionable young Muslims to join them. Namely, all the stuff about the United States being a nation of hypocrites who preach freedom and democracy but practice torture and indefinite detention.

No that is crackpotism.
On what basis do you judge detainees to be felons?
On what evidence? On what rules of law?
You judge detainees, most of whom have never even been charged with a crime, to be felons, yet you judge a completed trial, conducted almost two thousand years ago, to be fraudulent based on your imagined motivations of the prosecutors.
You have an interesting take on the Rule of Law, Daryll. Not a very coherent one, but it is entertaining, in a “America’s Favorite Home Videos” kind of way.

February 15th, 2008 at 12:39 pmDaryll and his fellow Bush apologists are still trying to rule by fear. Romney made some comment yesterday, in endorsing McCain, about how this is the most dangerous time in our nation’s history. Daryll makes the same silly excuse for indecent behavior and the violation of human rights.
Romney’s comment is mind-boggling in its stupidity. I mean, hellllo! The Civil War? The Great Depression? World War II? Hell, the Cuban Missile Crisis?
The attacks of September 2001 were frightening and the loss of life was very sad. The Republicans have used this to frighten the American people into willingly giving up their rights by blowing it entirely out of proportion, and people like Daryll are the result.

For example, Jesus was nailed to the cross for his beliefs. In Berkely, CA, you liberals are nailing the Marine Corps to the cross by informing them to move out of that town, and are disabling them to restore/increase their military population. DISGUSTING!!!!

You’re comparing someone that was tortured and executed for speaking up about God as the equivalent of 1 town that doesn’t want the Marines to spread propoganda and lies about how “great” the military and their benefits are out of hundreds of thousands of towns they could (re)locate to ?

No. You can thank Bush for that.
February 15th, 2008 at 12:42 pmYou would probably try to negotiate with the authorities to ensure that they are treated as respectable people. They are not respectable. THEY ARE CRIMINALS!!!!!!!!
Comment by Daryll — February 15, 2008 @ 12:32 pm
Respectability doesn’t enter into it. They are people, however, and should be granted the basic human rights of due process, legal representation, and protection from torture. If they are the criminals you allege, then this must be proven in a court of law.

This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land;
International law, that is the body of treaties we have signed and ratified, are OUR law.

15 , 16 and 17-year old kids are easily impressionable and very readily misled.
Especially if they come from some sort of deprived , dysfunctional or less than desired background.
But even those who might live in “comfort” can be fed lies and start thinking/dreaming in a manner not consistent with reality.
And anyway ; Jesus didn’t lie about anything.
You cannot make the same claim about military recruiters ; to try and compare the 2 totally disparate and unrelated situations is disingenuous at best.
PS
February 15th, 2008 at 12:54 pmThat still doesn’t mean the people of Berkeley do not support the military or our troops.
Only to you partisan GOP/Chimpy backing ignoramuses …….
“Exactly, so how would treating terrorists in a respectable way affect the way that they treat our POW’s?”
Clueless Comment by Daryll
That’s not what I said.
I said by not torturing we set an example for the rest of the world and are able to put pressure on other countries to treat our troops well when they are captured.
There are other potential threats in the world other than AQ. Will will be at war with other countries at some point as well, and need to not have tunnel vision, only worrying about tyhe current fight.

Bush/Cheney/Mukasey have all sworn to defend the Constitution. They haven’t. In fact they have spent considerable time and effort finding inventive ways of undermining our laws. Bush/Cheney collaberated in the outing of a covert agent in a time of war (treason) for purely political puposes. Progressives support the unwavering defense of our Constitution and the rule of law. Daryll-of-monkeys refers to us as terrorists. Maybe Daryll-the-dim should stop reading books written by some of the most corrupt tools of the Right Wing and actually read the Constitution. I’m sure there are books available that explain our laws in a way that even Daryll would understand. Try the Children’s Books section of your local library. They may not issue a library card to someone who constantly comes in reeking of his own urin, though.

The Project for the New American Century is a non-profit educational organization dedicated to a few fundamental propositions: that American leadership is good both for America and for the world; and that such leadership requires military strength, diplomatic energy and commitment to moral principle.
The Project for the New American Century intends, through issue briefs, research papers, advocacy journalism, conferences, and seminars, to explain what American world leadership entails. It will also strive to rally support for a vigorous and principled policy of American international involvement and to stimulate useful public debate on foreign and defense policy and America’s role in the world.
