The Corner

Attention Sen. Jon Kyl et al.

Sen. Kerry is bringing up the New START treaty before the senate foreign relations committee as soon as tomorrow. Dan and I have a piece over on the home page on how critical top Republicans are of the treaty:

At the upper reaches of the Republican party there’s a consensus on the New START treaty: It’s a mistake. In exclusive statements to NRO, top Republicans nationally — and potential 2012 presidential candidates — lambaste the treaty as a deeply flawed document that should be revised or scrapped altogether.

And at the end:

Then there’s our favorite dark-horse candidate in 2012, former U.N. ambassador John Bolton. He has criticized New START at length in the pages of National Review and the Wall Street Journal. “This treaty is harmful to American interests in many, many ways,” Bolton tells NRO. “I can’t imagine that any serious candidate for the Republican nomination could be anything other than strongly opposed.”
