You mean like how the Republicans were filibustering during Clinton's term?

They deserve a taste of their own medicine.

Democrats have said Bolton lacks the diplomatic skills for the job.

At his confirmation hearings last month, senators heard testimony that Bolton bullied subordinates and manipulated intelligence.

Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee issued a 63-page report last week saying Bolton tried repeatedly to discipline an analyst who disagreed with him -- and then misled the committee about the matter.

One of Bolton's former State Department colleagues testified last month that he was "a quintessential kiss-up, kick-down sort of guy."
Besides he sounds like an ***hole.
