How long until Bolton starts abusing the UN?
I can't imagine too many people at the UN will be happy to see the guy knowing he was installed and not have to be put through the tradiontal routes of senate confirmation.

How much power will have at the UN? I mean, who over there is going to take the guy seriously?

And can he lose his job if he did have something to do with the outing of Plame?

2. How long before Bolton resigns from the UN post?
It's not like Russia, China, Venezuela, Iran, etc. didn't have enough time to plan a counter strategy to drive Bolton nuts and humiliate the Bush Admin.

8. he thinks they are illegitimate
Bolton has long dismissed the legitimacy of the United Nations. In a 1994 speech at the liberal World Federalist Association, Bolton declared that “there is no such thing as the United Nations.” To underscore his point, Bolton said: “If the UN secretary building in New York lost ten stories, it wouldn’t make a bit of difference.”
