Unmitigated gall
UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan's newly appointed chief of staff, Mark Malloch Brown, comments on the Bolton nomination:

UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan's newly appointed chief of staff, Mark Malloch Brown, comments on the Bolton nomination:
I think many of us do think there is a silver lining to this, that a good ambassador from the United States to the U.N. also has to be a good ambassador from the U.N. to Washington.An outrageous statement. Does the UN kleptocracy really believe that the American ambassador to the UN must represent their intertests? Have our previous ambassadors fostered this ridiculous and dangerous mentality?
(Emphasis mine)
