[From James Ridgeway's coilumn in the Village Voice.]

... There are ... signs that Republican dissidents are sheepishly coming home. Ohio GOP senator George Voinovich, who agonized and then opposed John Bolton, and was unhappy when Bush gave him a recess appointment as U.N. ambassador, now seeks to embrace Bolton as a Christian act. The senator is sending Bolton a copy of one of his favorite books, The Heart and Soul of Effective Management, by business consultant James F. Hind. It urges corporate executives to take the Christian way and says things like "The corporate culture of Christ was built around concern and care for others, not himself" and "Power can be good or evil, according to the heart of the person who used it. This is management at its best."

Voinovich was quoted as saying, "I hope that Bolton will read it and put it into practice. I also hope that Bolton will take seriously his role as a public diplomat representing our country."
