Bush sez Sammy makes U.N. look foolish...
2002-10-28
This is one of the few occasions where I disagree with Bush. The U.N. doesn't need Sammy's help to look foolish...
Turning up pressure on skeptical U.S. allies, President Bush said Monday that Saddam Hussein ``has made the United Nations look foolish'' and demanded anew that the international body disarm Iraq. ``Either the United Nations will do its duty to disarm Saddam Hussein or Saddam Hussein will disarm himself,'' Bush said, apparently leaving open the possibility that Saddam could avert an international conflict.
I suppose he could also become a Shriner and raise money for little kids, wear a funny hat, and ride a motorcycle in parades. But I doubt that he'll do either...
``In either case, if (U.N. nations) refuse to act - in the name of peace, in the name of a security tomorrow, in the name of freedom - the United States will lead a coalition and disarm him,'' Bush said, drawing huge cheers at a political rally eight days before the Nov. 5 elections.
