A protester is removed from the room by Capitol Hill police as John Bolton testifies to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, who are considering his nomination to be U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, on Capitol Hill in Washington July 27, 2006. Bolton has filled the post since 2005 under a recess appointment from U.S. President George W. Bush. REUTERS/Joshua Roberts (UNITED STATES)

8. Another little old lady making the strong men wet themselves
Surprised they only required two officers to escort her out. I guess the mace and truncheons were reserved for the time they weren't being photographed.

The egotistical dumbass is probably thinking "Wow, I have groupies. Bet they'd love to tear my clothes off".

Edit to say I think it's great these ladies made a stink. They have guts.

20. Bless her!

Have you noticed how more and more "hecklers" are getting bold enough to speak out!

I love it and more power to them.

15. I have never understood Bolton's appeal
Just his appearance alone is disturbing but his appalling lack of diplomacy is truly scary....why don't they notice?

17. Fight the good fight...
Can you imagine what freaky moustache man will do if his appointment is approved by Congress, without the restraints of the recess appointment? :scared: :scared: He hates the UN and is a Neocon supremacist.

18. The same thing he's doing now: Turning the rest of the nations against us.
He's beligerant, rude, uncharismatic and an idiot to boot. They hate him at the UN and therefore they will try to be everything he is not.

I'd be more worried if there was someone with a clue being nominated.

Is it just me or are the kids sitting out on this whole dissent thing? Whenever I go to a protest or vigil, the kids are out numbered 5 to 1. Someone please tell me that college campuses are more active than I am led to believe...

edit for speeling

25. This is what we should be doing every single day.
So they can never televise a hearing without US getting a hearing, too.

No more free airtime for the See No Evil Congressional Theater.
