Say what you will about John Bolton, but ...

How many people do you know who have managed to remain employed for 45 years and not accomplished even a single goddamn thing?

Look at his resume, it is completely void of any accomplishments.

John Bolton is incapable of properly grooming his own moustache, much less determining which wars this nation should take part in.
