John Bolton For President? (VIDEO)
Could John Bolton -- the former Bush-era Ambassador to the United Nations and permanent cheerleader for bombing Iran -- run for president? Or does he just long for attention?

During recent appearances on Fox News, Bolton has been asked whether he would run for president. "Well, you know it's a great honor when people ask me that question, and I have been asked that question," Bolton said on Wednesday. "I don't think anybody involved with politics should worry about that until after the elections this fall."

He also said: "I'm not saying no. That's right."

As Chris Matthews said today: "Ha! Well I hope he runs -- to remind the country of what everybody voted against in 2006 and 2008, and the ideology that led us into attacking a country that never attacked us, an ideology that wants to make some sort of permanent garrison in the Middle East."

1. If an advisory group has already been formed to
advance Bolton as a potential candidate for president in 2012, I wouldn't be the least surprised.

I'm sure Bolton thinks of himself in such grand terms. I'm sure there are influential and wealthy people who would like to see Bolton's star rise.

Yuck City, boys and girls.

4. Starting with Newie tootie and Palin there is not a republican
going who does not think they are (this is an old old saying) the cat's meow. Their ego is so big they don't make head gear big enough to fit them.
