#1 The UN lecturing people on corruption is like Jenna Jameson lecturing us about abstinence...

#2 Yeah, if the corruption gets back enough it could end up looking like the EU Commission on Administrative Affairs.

Or any UN refugee program.

#4 The BBC has been crowing about a Kofi Annon quote all day. Seems the SecGen wants the US/UK to set a date for withdrawal. And it should be very soon. Between the "special" UN Phool to Iraq and Kofi's pronouncements, well, it's like checking to make sure you're on the opposite side of an issue from Phrawnce - to be sure you're doing the right thing.

#5 We'd be happy for the UN to set a date for withdrawal, Mr. Secretary-General. How soon can you vacate the building? It's set for an urban renewal project.

These UN officials have absolutely no shame.

#7 Democracy and capitalism flowering in Iraq will make the UN look like the useless organization the sense of which, UN officials have worked arduously to create and maintain.

And I agree. Give Kofi and his communist friends a definitive withdrawal date from Iraq, to be closely matched with the UN's withdrawl from the USA.
