Bolton: UN troubled by "sex and corruption"

[Fenris]

NEW YORK (AP) - The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations said Saturday that the world body is hobbled "by bad management, by sex and corruption" and a lack of confidence in its ability to carry out missions.

John Bolton also criticized the U.N.'s budget, noting that two-thirds of members pay only 20 percent of the cost.

"We find an organization that is deeply troubled by bad management, by sex and corruption and by a growing lack of confidence in its ability to carry out missions that are given to them," Bolton told an audience at a Columbia Law School symposium held by the Federalist Society, a conservative law organization.

Bolton, a longtime critic of the U.N., has been leading U.S. efforts to reform the United Nations after the oil-for-food scandal and sex scandals involving U.N. peacekeepers.

1. So, who's bumping booties at the U.N.? And does Bolton want in on it?

Is that why he's so upset? He doesn't have anyone at the UN to bump booties with?

[clydefrand]

3. He can't find anyone who would want to bump his bootie.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. Bootie-bumping would not seem to be one of Mr. Bolton's priorities.

There are some people who are just too damn creepy for sex, and he's one of them; doing Bolton would be like humping a crocodile. If only somebody would bump his bootie and the booties of the rest of the Bush regime ghouls, maybe they wouldn't be so damn ornery.

43. This coming from John "Mr. Plato's Retreat" Himself

Yeah, Larry Flynt went looking and found out how KINKY ol Walrus Face is!

http://www.larryflynt.com/bolton/

"Corroborated allegations that Mr. Bolton's first wife, Christina Bolton, was forced to engage in group sex have not been refuted by the State Department despite inquires posed by Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt concerning the allegations. Mr. Flynt has obtained information from numerous sources that Mr. Bolton participated in paid visits to Plato's Retreat, the popular swingers club that operated in New York City in the late 1970s and early 1980s".

I forgot, we live in a Christian Fascist state where Republicans can do anything and it's OK because Jesus will forgive them...

[niyad]

2. would be nice if he offered proof-given that he hates the UN and wants to

eliminate it, he is not, perhaps, the most reliable source of accurate information.

[Akoto]

4. Unlike our government ...

Which is troubled only by bad management, corruption, pervasive secrecy, warmongering agendas, disregard for the nation's founding beliefs, foolhardy budgets, diplomatic ineptitude ... *pauses for breath*

[yourout]

5. Oh this is really the pot calling the kettle black.

After what he supposedly did to his exwife.

[Fenris]

6. Perhaps he's frustrated no one has taken his "Moustache Ride" offer?

7. Maybe we can take up a collection

to hire a "reporter" for Bolton's next press conference who will ask him to be specific about just how sex is "hobbling" the U.N.:freak: :hug:

8. Who anointed that f*cker as the morality police?

9. What is it w/Republicans and sex? (nt)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

11. They don't get any, that's their problem.

Nobody wants to do them, and with good reason. I think that's why they hated Bill Clinton so much -- he could get laid, and they couldn't, and it drove them crazy.

[wordpix2]

54. I foresee a new Bolton novel featuring UN interns & building's guard dogs

[rwheeler31]

12. Doofus describing the US current administration..

They always describe others in the vulgar terms that apply to themselves.

13. This SOB is going to be persona non grata there very soon.

If he's not already.

[annabanana]

41. he was non grata before he got in the door....

(the back door too)

[rwenos]

14. Imagine That! Human Beings Having Sex!

And politicians taking payoffs! Those things must NEVER HAPPEN when Republicans are around!

I sometimes wonder how these Yahoos find their zippers in the morning.

This is the kind of attitude that gets us an Attorney General who spends $7,000 draping classical statues of Lady Justice so he can't see the breasts.

[hack89]

52. Image! UN soldiers involved with child prostitutes!

That's the issue - UN peacekeepers sexually exploiting those they are suppose to be protecting.

[NastyRiffraff]

15. UN: Bolton troubled by bad hair and mustache n/t

[SpiralHawk]

16. Is Jeff Gannon branching out to the UN?

I thought he exclusively serviced Republicans in the Bush White House as their male prostitute in residence*

* Over 200 curious visits of this male prostitute to the Bush White House according to official Secret Service records

[Ecumenist]

37. Really...LOL!!!

I have to wonder about that myself...Jeffy boy would come in handy for many of these neocons, at least according some of the the activities at the Bohemian Grove. To think that these perversions of humanity have the colossal nerve to talk about anyone's sexual proclivities is a hott and holler!!!:rofl: :popcorn:

[spindrifter]

17. Do you think one of those inflatable

dolls would shut him up?

[aquart]

21. Inflatable is passe. Desperate guys in the know get a Real Doll.

<http://www.realdoll.com/>

She's silicon and she costs thousands.

[spindrifter]

23. Bolton is passe--from the 'stasche to

the crap that comes out of his mouth.

[TomInTib]

18. "Federalist Society- meet Sex" Bolton is ludicrous....

I mean, this is so sadly hysterical.

[aquart]

20. Not enough of it coming his way?

[SoCalDem]

22. I tell ya.. those republicans all all about sniffing out sex....

to look at them you would never think they were such horny people:)

[doni_georgia]

60. Sure you would.

Can any of you out there imagine sex with anyone (male or female) who is of any note in this administration without feeling the immediate urge to projectile-vomit? Me either.
This administration is desperate; Bolton's remark underscores yet another facet of their desperation.

24. This is cutting edge reporting.

I am sorry, but the media is not in right now. Please leave a message after the beep. We don't know when we'll be back.

[PassingFair]

25. THIS is the kind of *hit I can't stand...

"and by a growing lack of confidence in its ability to carry out missions that are given to them,"

...just like the management where I work blaming lagging sales on the salespeople, with NO sense of the reality of the economic situation! It's CRAZY WORLD! :crazy:

They really think that they can CREATE THEIR OWN REALITY. If they just push us hard enough...

I wish they weren't so insulated. I wish they had a car break down in a bad neighborhood like that couple in "Vanity of the Bonfires".

[Ecumenist]

38. ROTFLMAO!!!!

I...CAN'T...BREATHE...CAR BREAK DOWN...I..CAN'T...SEE...THROUGH....TEARS....TO ...TYPE..:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
I can think of more than a few people in some upscale neighbourhoods who'd love to have a chat or two with this bunch too, trust me..

[neuvocat]

26. It didn't have that problem before he got there then.

He should resign instead of bringing all that baggage with him.

27. John Bolton brings his own history with him to the U.N.

Who doesn't remember this information already out:

John Bolton's Divorce – Group Sex Allegations
Friday, 13 May 2005, 11:43 am
Press Release: Larry Flynt

John R. Bolton Court Divorce Records Show His First
Wife Fled Home When He Was Traveling Abroad

From Larry Flynt
http://www.larryflynt.com/bolton/

Publisher Larry Flynt's Questions Posed to State Department Regarding Corroborated Allegations that First Wife was Forced into Group Sex go Unanswered

May 11-LOS ANGELES - Court records concerning the divorce of John R. Bolton, the Bush administration's nominee to become the next ambassador to the United Nations, show his first wife fled the couple's marital home when he was traveling abroad in mid-August 1982. The records further show that she took most of the couple's furniture.

Corroborated allegations that Mr. Bolton's first wife, Christina Bolton, was forced to engage in group sex have not been refuted by the State Department despite inquires posed by Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt concerning the allegations. Mr. Flynt has obtained information from numerous sources that Mr. Bolton participated in paid visits to Plato's Retreat, the popular swingers club that operated in New York City in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

"The first Mrs. Bolton's conduct raises the presumption that she fled out of fear for her safety or, at a minimum, it demonstrates that Mr. Bolton's established inability to communicate or work respectfully with others extended to his intimate family relations," said Mr. Flynt. "The court records alone provide sufficient basis for further investigation of nominee Bolton by the Senate." (Click here for court records). Mr. Flynt continued, "The U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations must be free of any potential source of disrepute or blackmail."

"Too sexy" for his wife Bolton

[antonialee839]

28. Since when is sex trouble? Only when it's some repuke getting

involved in another person's private sexual business.

[Judi Lynn]

29. Maybe Bolton could advise a Colorado Republican congressman

since he has added other people's sexual attitudes and actions to his area of expertise:

Welker objects to sex-themed show

By John Fryar
The Daily Times-Call

DENVER — Loveland Republican Rep. Jim Welker is objecting to the Colorado Convention Center’s scheduling of a sex-oriented trade show this weekend.

Welker said Friday that he’s sending a letter to Convention Center officials expressing several GOP lawmakers’ “deep concern” about The Sex and So Much More Show at the downtown venue, noting that the center was financed in part by a bond issue approved by this city’s voters.

Show organizers say on their Web site that they’ll limit attendance to people age 19 and older. But Welker said in a Friday statement that “it is unacceptable for Colorado to become a culture that exposes impure behavior to our children without batting an eye.”

Welker said, “Keeping in mind that Colorado citizens have helped the convention center to become the renowned place it is today, the center in return should host exhibits that reflect the philosophies and ideals (of) its citizens.

His mother probably refused to breast feed him becuase she only wanted to be 'friends' with him.

30. Sex and Bolton in the same sentence?

Yikes!

31. Bolton: restoring bondage and discipline at the UN

and creeping me out all the way

[area51]

53. "Bolton: restoring bondage and discipline at the UN"

LOL.

I think Bolton is engaging in what psychologists call "projection".

[HuffleClaw]

32. "bad management, by sex and corruption"

more blatant projection by bushco.! haahahahhhhhaaaaaa

and it gets BETTER! "a growing lack of confidence in its ability to carry out missions that are given to them"

33. This POS can go and start his own UN.

This nutjob hasn't done shit since being 'slipped' into the UN except complain and beat his war drum.

34. That's it for me.

I'm ex-communicating myself from America. I want to be on the outside, sniggering away with the civilized world at these arrogant cretins, and no longer shamed by association.

36. Ain't this a bitch???

:sarcasm: Pot meet kettle.... Mr plato's retreat himself.LOL!!!:rofl:

[truthisfreedom]

39. what we need is a good-old list of repukes involved in sex and corruption

scandals to get into the MSM. it's HUGE.

[Mithras61]

40. This reminds me quite strongly of the old joke...

PSYCHIATRIST: Are you troubled by thoughts of perverted sexual activities?
PERVERT: No. Actually I quite enjoy them!

But seriously, how does one manage an institution by sex and corruption? I would venture to say that the repubes have demonstrated pretty conclusively that management by corruption and sex is pretty bad management indeed. I would also think that if anyone knew, it would be the 'pubes, since they seem to be the masters of it here at home.

[LynnTheDem]

42. Poor bolton ain't getting any.

As for corruption, check out the bush regime, bolton. Lots of it there.

What a fucking embarrassment he is.

[tecelote]

44. Too bad we don't have any real journalists left.

It should be obvious by now. If a Republican is accusing someone of something look in their back yard!

They scream about sex and drugs to hide their own illegal activities. It has happened so often it's a joke the media misses.

[Lucy - Claire]

45. No kidding,,,,

Power, people and sex there is an unlikely combination!!!!!

[Orsino]

47. The thought of Bolton having sex?

Now I'm troubled. Yeesh.

[onehandle]

48. What a crazy f*cker. nt

[Thor_MN]

49. Once he found that there were not any goats, horses, sheep, tar &feathers,

clown outfits, peach cobbler or fire ants involved in the sex lives of the UN people, he declared them perverted according to his norms....

[xchrom]

51. goats, horses, sheep?!?!

bolton must be bored.

[leesa]

50. Now THIS is an important charge. This man is so frivolous. Was it the US

didn't pay its dues?? Worlds richest country at the time?

[Marie26]

55. Bolton: Creepiest man alive?

I vote yes.

[spanone]

56. In that case, he really DID find a home. Prick.

[Generic Brad]

57. And the UN is Troubled By Bolton

That makes them even. I rest my case.

[Psephos]

58. The "sex" referred to is UN peacekeepers raping children and indigents

I think there's only one other person on this thread who understands that rape by blue-helmeted peacekeepers is a nasty serious business indeed.

Here's a link to a Reuters story. There are plenty of others.
http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N2320357.htm

Google for more. Check out what went down in Congo, Somalia, Kosovo, and East Timor. In Congo, the UN "peacekeepers" raped children preferentially to avoid getting AIDS. Yep, jamming your penis inside a nine-year-old is certainly one way to avoid STDs.

Where is the outrage, people? WHERE IS THE FUCKING OUTRAGE???? In Abu Ghraib at least the victims were *adults*. Does this not warrant at least an equivalent response?

Just because we hate Bolton doesn't mean we can't hate child rape, too. Unbelievable.

Peace.

[doni_georgia]

61. Several points

Corruption? Maybe. Few large governing bodies exist without it. But this accusation comes from a man who owes his very position to widespread corruption in his home country.

Sex? No doubt the alleged acts in question - I am not yet up to speed on this, so I just can't speak at any length with validity - are of serious import and are a major blow to UN credibility. This is an area of concern, even if Bolton's the one saying so. Again, however, the man's own history does make his professed outrage questionable and actually trivializes the issue through his mention of it.

Dues paying? Sure, there are a lot of countries that don't pay much at the UN. Not every country is a US, or even an India, or a Greece. We're talking about nations like Tanzania, which gets something like 85%-90% of its energy generated by lighting wood fires. We're talking nations that have literacy rates lower than George W. Bush's approval ratings. We're talking nations with very serious internal problems that are directly impacting (read: sickening and killing) their populations. The nations that can pay more, should. To ask Zimbabwe to make a bigger contribution so that the wealthier nations (read: the US) can make a smaller one, while at the same time insisting that the US should still be able to do pretty much what it likes on the world stage, is plain arrogance. Again, coming from this man, it does neither the US nor the UN one whit of good for him to say this.

Conclusion: John Bolton is a pompous, overbearing, self-important blowhard with a big stick who - by my guess - is about as welcome at the UN as a skinhead at a Jewish Defense League meeting. They may not actually ask him to leave, but that's not through any merit of his, or of what he represents.

Perhaps we could ask Mr. Bolton to comment?
