Liz Cheney Blames George Bush for North Korea Situation
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailySince being sworn-in nearly two years ago, President Obama has blamed his predecessor for many of America's problems. Typically, Republicans have pushed back at these assertions, arguing that Obama refuses to accept responsibility for anything. But an exception to this rule can be found in the recent heightening of tensions between South and North Korea: Some prominent Republicans have assigned partial blame to President George W. Bush for mishandling the North Korea situation. Appearing on "Fox News Sunday" this weekend, former State Department official Liz Cheney joined that chorus when ...
John Bolton for President: Long Shot's Challenge
By Andrea Stone - AOL NewsWASHINGTON (Sept. 3) -- Presidential campaigns aren't for the faint of heart, but John Bolton may just have the guts to launch one. The former ambassador to the United Nations, whom Time magazine once called "the angriest neocon" and The Daily Caller more recently dubbed the "Criticizer-in-Chief" for his swipes at the Obama administration, is considering a run for president in 2012. "I'm obviously not a politician. I've never run for any federal elective office at all, and, you know, it is something that would obviously require a great deal of effort," Bolton told the Caller.

John Bolton: Bill Clinton's Release of Euna Lee and Laura Ling Puts Americans at Risk
By Ria Misra - Politics DailyThe news that former president Bill Clinton's visit to North Korea ended with the release of journalists Euna Lee and Laura Ling was met with celebration -- but not universally.

Calling the trip a "significant propaganda victory for North Korea," Bolton warned in Tuesday's Washington Post that the increased attention brought by the former president would have dangerous consequences for future hostages. ...
North Korea to Get Off Terror List
By Mark Impomeni - Politics DailyPresident Bush announced today that the United States will drop North Korea from its list of state sponsors of terrorism in exchange for the communist regime's cooperation in the Six Party Talks. After months of stalling and diplomatic wrangling, North Korea turned over a declaration of all its past nuclear activities today to China, the host of the Six Party Talks, which will share the information with the U.S, Russia, Japan, and South Korea. The de-listing of the North as a terror sponsor clears the way for food and fuel aid, desperately needed by its impoverished people, to be delivered. ...
Former U.N. Ambassador Weighs In on McCain
By Mark Impomeni - Politics DailyFormer United States Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, made news today at the Conservative Political Action Conference by announcing his support for the likely Republican nominee, Sen. John McCain. Bolton is very highly regarded by conservatives for his tenure at the U.N. and for his willingness to combat the policies of the State Department, where Bolton was once an assistant Secretary of State for arms proliferation. His assessment of Sen. McCain could carry great weight among conservatives who believe that national security and the war on terror are the most important issues in ...
