#1 I'm getting a major whiff of anti-Americanism, America has too much influence/control at the UN, let's make sure America gets sidelined at the UN since they've been so mean to us lately in all this.

Honestly, a Mexican official who's also a former Koffee aid with essentially zero experience for the job?

I guess Koffee's looking forward to a few extra bucks coming his way other than his $22k/month stipend and whatever he's got stashed in his Swiss retirement fund.

#3 Let's see, we've got a Mexican in charge of administration and a Frenchman in charge of the military stuff. Maybe the UN can complete the numbnut trifecta and put a German in charge of public relations.

#5 Don't count on it. US contributions to the UN have been skyrocketing. A $2 billion low or free interest loan is in the cards.
