The Bolton Solution: Be Bold and pull a Kastanza!
The solution to the Democrat filibuster of John Bolton to be the ambassador to the United Nations is as simple as reviewing an episode of Seinfeld. Yes, it is time to pull a Kastanza!
John Bolton needs to just show up for work and begin doing his job. President Bush can sign an order for John Bolton to be the "acting" ambassador and let him start working tomorrow. By assuming the position and cleaning up the mess, confirmation becomes an afterthought. Performing the job will put pressure on the Senate to get Mr Bolton confirmed and will go a long way to forcing discipline on the Senate. Be bold! Be Newt Gingrich or Ronald Reagan bold and watch the Senate fall all over itself to get in line.
Thanks to Power Line for the Gingrich interview.
