Comments on: he sure can pick ‘em http://globalspin.com/2005/03/he-sure-can-pick-em/ a glimpse into the tiny mind of Chris Radcliff Sat, 01 May 2010 03:53:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.8 By: Chris http://globalspin.com/2005/03/he-sure-can-pick-em/comment-page-1/#comment-689 Thu, 17 Mar 2005 16:22:29 +0000 http://globalspin.com/wp/2005/03/16/523/#comment-689 I sure hope so. If other nations were to loudly and openly veto the nomination, hopefully it would be another indicator to the American public that the world doesn’t really like our government much…

Of course, opposition to the invasion of Iraq didn’t get world leaders anywhere…

Maybe they’ll use it now?
