Beyond Explanation
What is "beyond explanation"? Why I find this oft-printed photo of John Bolton to be so damn funny.
The whole adjusting-the-glasses thing gives him a certain owlish absurdity. Like a cartoon character. Like his entire head was assembled like a Mr. Potatohead: Noggin, white mustache, glasses, right hand to hold glasses, and giant hair thing that looks very much like an enormous wig -- each a separate molded plastic piece, assembled into what has become the worst nomination for a senior diplomatic post in the history of the human race. It's ridiculous moves like this (of which there have been 343,762,234,774,234,2134.45adfa,453,123.05 since 2001) that convince me of the president's desire to bring about a global religious war -- the Biblical end of days or something. Crazy.

It's hard to look owlish when there's a multi-legged, fuzzy thing crawling across your upper lip.
If Bolton doesn't get the go ahead, Bush can always nominate a look alike, Wilford Brimley, for example. Wilford can tell the delegates to eat their oatmeal. They need to hear that.
