Praktike gets this post on Bolton and his "he's not so bad" defenders in the media and blogosphere so right too:

Meanwhile, Greg Djerejian has violated our truce and is excited to inform us with a jab in my specific direction that Jim Hoagland's sources in Europe say Bolton is not all that bad once you get to know him. So, we have been told repeatedly by Hoagland, was that nice man Ahmed Chalabi who is busy as we speak anti-helping the duly elected UIA to assume power (those two groups that peeled to support Allawi off are his allies, and his foray to Kurdistan was followed by an announcement that the agreement had fallen apart.

Not to pick on Greg too much. He links to an interesting Ha'aretz report today on Israel bowing to American pressure to finally curtail arms sales to China.
