John Bolton: I’m delighted that Paul Ryan is the VP nominee, excellent choice

John Bolton believes that selecting Paul Ryan as VP nominee, especially because he’s a budget guru, is an excellent choice by Romney. Bolton says there’s a certain understanding that one must have to craft a budget that includes defense spending, and that having Paul Ryan as VP will help the coming Romney administration make the tough decisions when it comes to protecting defense spending as we go forward.

Bolton also weighs in on Egypt’s President Morsi ‘retiring’ the Defense Minister and Chief of Staff as well as rescinding the military decree that restricted his own powers as president, Bolton says this is very concerning and that it may only be the first round in a power struggle between the Muslim Brotherhood and the military.
