Yes, he can.
By the way, the opponents were the ones who prevented a Senate vote, not the President. Bolton had majority support but not 60 votes to break the Democrats' filibuster.
Attila, the White House was withholding information on Bolton. There was also the issue of Bolton hiding sensitive information that might have changed the march to war. Unfortunately, what this does is continue divisive politics. This is just Bush showing he can win regardless of what the repercussions might be. No one at the UN will pay Bolton much mind considering his job is up in January 2007.
