It’s nice of Meteor Blades to remind us that John “The Walrus” Bolton is a top foreign policy adviser to the Mitt Romney campaign and that he is positively rooting for U.S. diplomacy with Iran to fail so that someone can bomb their nuclear facilities. It reminds me of the scene in Godfather 3 when Al Pacino’s character says, “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.” The idea there was that Michael Corleone was trying to turn his vast criminal enterprise into a law-abiding legitimate business conglomerate. And then he discovered that he needed to go all gangsta on some people. That’s roughly how I feel about how Obama has been doing the job of cleaning up after Bush. And that’s how I’ll feel if Obama’s job is interrupted so that Romney can immerse us in another decade or more of war in the Middle East.
