(John Bolton inspired Halloween attire)
On Halloween, John Bolton had a sprawling screed in the Wall Street Journal on all the reasons the Bush administration should start a few new wars, scrap diplomacy with North Korea on its nukes, further isolate Syria, and the like. Marty Peretz catches the best of it on his blog -- and reminds me of why I dislike Peretz's take on the world so much.
But as a Japan commentator recently told me, John Bolton is a lot like Shintaro Ishihara, Tokyo's jingoistic, right wing nationalist governor who would lead a military crusade against China if he could.
This Foreign Ministry official said that listening to Bolton or Ishihara is like watching a horror movie. Don't do it unless you want to be scared.
The UJA Federation of Greater Toronto will be (tonight) the next to enjoy John Bolton's tirades.

love the tie, Steve...and the sentiment behind the costume.
Could Bolton be your straight up and heinous psychopath? Hmmm, listening to Bolton's ravings and that possibility becomes distinctly plausible.
Looks more like Mark Twain to me! Can't even see the vein in your neck throb...
Ah Steve, you shoulda dressed up Oakley to compete with Darth vader's dogs.......... but I simply LOVE your outfit.hahahhaha
