http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x1735671Thread title: "Barbara Boxer to * : Nominate a new UN Ambassador!"
This thread has the full text of April 20 letters written by Sen. Boxer to Bush (asking him to choose another nominee) and to Condi Rice (informing her that her reported orders to State Dept staff to withhold from the committee any damaging info on Bolton would be UNCONSTITUTIONAL).
Both threads have links to a number of published updates, among which is a CBS video. During part of it, amazingly, Condi Rice dismisses all the allegations and declares that Bolton should be confirmed immediately because (a) the Senate is just complaining about his management style, and it's a GOOD management style; and (b) the US currently has no UN ambassador, and that's a Bad Thing.
The rest of the world is watching this tragicomic farce with horrified disbelief. And many people in other countries would think "serial bully" would apply quite well to the US government. Can't disagree.
