I was and am disappointed that former UN Ambassador and Presidential adviser John Bolton will not run for President in 2016. I did not have a good sense that he was going to run but I was still hopeful. So how did a Ron Paul libertarian/conservative end up supporting Bolton? Ambassador Bolton was firm on […]

I have been and still are a bad blogger these days but I promised to put this in as soon as I could! Great news from two sources (Washington Post and Breitbart) about the fundraising skills of the John Bolton PAC: John Bolton, a former U.N. ambassador, familiar face from the George W. Bush administration, […]

I just read about this tweet from former UN ambassador John Bolton and I did agree to retweet it: No President in post World War II era has cared less about foreign policy than Obama. Is Obama the worst President? https://cards.twitter.com/cards/qfdli2/79v … I read that Bolton had a good week based on this tweet: Last week […]

I do admire former UN Ambassador John Bolton. Here’s several blog posts I wrote in 2011 about Bolton (Disrupt the Narrative got into the act, too!) and I even got to meet him (I didn’t wash my hand for a week!) here in Richmond. Now why would a non-interventionist even consider supporting a national security […]

Slate has this great article: Assad and the Death of the International Criminal Court The thesis is according to Eric Posner is: The failure to prosecute him will be the end for the ICC’s brand of global justice. So I had to read it. It should be required reading for every homeschooler. Here’s what he […]

Way back in the end of the Cold War, I speculated at first to myself and then to an occasional friend, that some day there would be more (religious) liberty in Russia than in the USA. While I do not believe that day as come yet (in fact, far from it) this article in Russia […]

A disturbing article on the Egyptian Constitution from a UN perspective. It is pure meddling and the USA ought to protest!

This op-ed in the Washington Post supports a thoroughly bad idea: Repeal or substantial repeal of the American Servicemembers Protection Act (ASPA): Next month’s anniversary is an appropriate time for Congress to review U.S. policy toward the court and whether the restrictions (including the authorization to invade The Hague) in the American Service-Members’ Protection Act […]

The NY Times gets it mostly wrong again in its editorial, Detained in Libya. A Libyan militia has detained four officials of the International Criminal Court since Thursday on spurious charges. They should be released immediately. The Times is probably right as far as it goes. ICC officials should be treated with respect. But here’s […]

There are some news reports that indicate that former UN Ambassador and presidential adviser John R. Bolton might run for the White House in 2012. As I blogged before, Bolton would be great on the sovereignty issue and is probably a solid mainstream conservative on other issues. However, he is certainly a national security conservative, […]

I have said frequently that the European Union is NOT our friend.

This article describes the logistical nightmare the arrest of the Libyan leader Gaddafi and two associates by or on behalf of the International Criminal Court. It’s a doozy.
