these groups support John Bolton because of his political views, because of his political expertise, and because of, yes, his personal moral principles. John Bolton is precisely the kind of citizen the United States desperately needs in this difficult time to have an important role in the protection of the American people from the threat of missile attack. This man is a thoughtful scholar and an accomplished diplomat and an honest and decent man. I urge that the Senate confirm his nomination without further delay.
