Starring Newt Gingrich as Plaxico Burress
“I will only appoint [John Bolton as Secretary of State] if he will agree that his first job is the complete and thorough transformation of the State Department and the replacement of the current foreign service culture with a new entrepreneurial and aggressive culture dedicated to the propositions that… defending America is the first business of the State Department.”
