New UN Ambassador

The Bush administration has nominated one John Bolton as the new US ambassador to the United Nations. Bolton, noted earlier for terse criticism of North Korea (aren't we all) has also apparently been none too kind to the UN.
His apparent words:
The (U.N.) Secretariat building in New York has 38 stories. If it lost 10 stories, it wouldn't make a bit of difference

Now whether true or not this may not be the best choice to represent the US to the organization. I always thought that Bush made some mighty questionable appointments, here's another.

Bush may have some good theory on foreign policy but the man can't execute his way out of a wet paper bag.
