Holy (Bolton) crap!!
Steve Clemons has a new post up: http://www.thewashingtonnote.com/archives/000798.html

SCOOP: John Bolton Was Regular Source for Judith Miller WMD and National Security Reporting

TWN has just learned from a highly placed source -- and in the right place to know -- that John Bolton was a regular source for Judith Miller's New York Times WMD and national security reports.

The source did not have any knowledge on whether Bolton was one of Miller's sources on the Valerie Plame story she was preparing, but argues that he was a regular source otherwise.

It's all "thickening."

3. Intriguing comment on that post
I see now why Bolton wanted to be UN Ambassador. As long as he was at the UN he would have had diplomatic immunity from Fitzgerald. It almost worked too.

I have no idea if this suggestion is true, but it sure is intriguing. If it is true - Who else has been placed in positions of "diplomatic immunity"?

4. He's attracted a really
smart group of commenters on his sight. He often takes leads from the comments.
