John Bolton
Let me ask, who died and made him king? Who gave him the authority to endanger 300 million Americans? That's not the way it works, and if he thinks he can get away with that, he's got another think coming.

John Bolton
The European Union can now act like a major power, at least that is what the European Union tells us.
John Bolton
There's no doubt that Iran funds and supplies Hamas with weapons.
John Bolton
There is no excuse for waste, fraud, and abuse in the Defense Department budget.
John Bolton
North Korea is going to get away with keeping its nuclear weapons.
John Bolton
I think some of this fascination with the 'Arab Spring' is just a grand experiment with Israel's survival.
John Bolton

John Bolton
Don't get me wrong: I would love to be president.
John Bolton
I don't think there is any good answer to the question why shouldn't gays and lesbians who want to serve their country be allowed to do it.
