Wonder what makes the UN so important to Democrats that they would even care enough to halt the nomination of Bolton. As a supposed bastion of the "one-worlders" it should be pretty obvious to a casual observer that the the UN's claws were clipped a while ago...assuming they even had any to begin with. Please tell me what authority the UN even has anymore?
Instead of a powerless body like the United Nations the Left would be better off going after a body that is truly one world and has power; The WTO.
Perhaps but some of that was deserved. That whole "I voted for it before I voted against it" Kerry sound-byte was a well-framed piece of Republican opportunism that Kerry so thoughtlessly provided.

Bringing up a topic like this is just dumb, and an excuse to bring up partisan politics. I'm sure that our beloved US Senator Hillary no doubt would agree with our President as she moves ever closer to an (UGH!) presidential run.
You can twist polls anyway you want to so they really aren't worthy of consideration.
The thing to do is eavesdrop on conversation and find out what the populace thinks.

If there was a poll sanctioned by Sports Illustrated asking how many of our sports heroes are "born again" I'm sure the opinions would be diverse as well....from the anti-Christian crowd to the zealots.
Then there's the old quote from a washed up baseball pitcher: "If a ball player found out that there's a way through believe that he can tack on a couple wins a year he'd be in church everyday."
Hey kiddies! Can you say DRAFT?
Well there's one group that isn't influenced by those darned hippies, but unfortunately can't serve. What do you tell these people?

Then one could assume, using your logic, that Jimmy Carter would be considered "Just Another Unpatriotic American".
