Profiles in douchebaggery

We've all known for quite some time that John Bolton is a world-class douchebag. However, even I was surprised that his diplomatic ineptness wasn't due so much to douchebaggery, but rather never evolving past the mindset of a 12 year old:
Bolton's recounting of these episodes adds to the growing body of insider accounts about the inner workings of the Bush administration, though this is one of the first by a leading conservative figure. It will likely cause angst at the State Department and in some foreign capitals, including London, because of Bolton's depiction of the diplomatic exchanges. In typically pugnacious style, Bolton lashes out at his opponents in the administration and overseas, repeatedly referring to European Union diplomats as "EUroids" and foes in State's East Asia and Pacific Affairs Bureau as "EAPeasers."

Right, "pugnacious." Try juvenile.
