1. Boy, talk about a contrast in styles of what it means to be a man.
The Chairman of this Committee vs. the Ambassador to the United Nations (interim appointment).

It doesn't get too much more sharply different than these two.

I hope Mr. Bolton encounters turbulent questioning.

4. Yeah. Bolton is not known for his forthcoming answers.
Dennis Kucinich is terrific. A real inspiration.

27. Where are the Cons?
So far, it's been Waxman, Kucinich, Van Hollen and Lynch (D-Mass). Are the Cons boycotting or just un-interested.

6. "And I ain't Mahatma Ghandi"
"Oh, yeah? Well, I talk LOUD, and I carry a BIGGER stick! And I use it, too!"

"When I get my hands on that money, I'll buy the old ladies home and kick the old ladies out. I'll have the orphan home torn down and I'll get rid of the police department. Mwa HA HA HA HA HA !!"

"All right, all right, I'm a thinkin'! And my head hurts."

"Ya better say yer prayers, ya flea-bitten varmaint, I'm a-gonna blow ya to smithereenies!"

"10 dollars!! Why it's getting so a man an't earn a dishonest living no more!"

"The next one that tries to git outa here to warn that rabbit gets his hide blasted off!!" *looks to audience* "And that goes for the rest of ya!!!"

"I'm-a going to count to three and then blast you!! One! Two! *WHAM*!!"

"I've got you out-numbered one to one. Surrender or die, rabbit!!"

"I says to myself 'Sam' I says "It's just money. Is it worth it? What's a million bucks?' Yes! It IIIIIIIS worth it!"

13. Now bringing up Tyler Drumheller and others--YES!!!
Bolten's on the hot seat squirming, and spewing the "I don't recall, remember, I'm not responsible" answers.

28. Van Hollen D-Maryland up now
And Bolten still manages to look down his nose at him even though he's on a higher level.

Bolten: "not accurate to say the U.S. thumbed it's nose at the U.N. Security Council...didn't have to go before the U.N."
