re: #41 Hecuba’s daughter

I don’t recall ever hearing about his involvement in birtherism at all.

An example:

[Pamela] Geller and [Richard] Spencer’s anti-Muslim track record didn’t deter Bolton from enjoying a warm public relationship with the duo after his departure from government service in 2006. Bolton has been interviewed multiple times on camera by Geller since 2009 and he strongly endorsed her and Spencer’s 2010 book, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration’s War on America.

Bolton even wrote the foreword for the book, concluding:

This book carries forward the ongoing and increasingly widespread critique of Barack Obama as our first post-American president. What it recounts is disturbing, and its broader implications are more disturbing still. Most Americans believe they elect a president who will vigorously represent their global interest, rather than electing a Platonic guardian who defends them only when they comport with his grander visions of a just world. Foreign leaders, whether friend or foe, expect the same. If, by contrast, Obama continues to behave as a post-American president, our adversaries will know exactly what to do. [Emphasis mine.]
