#4 Noting he was routinely described as "the most pro-American senior UN official", he said the speech was a "call from a friend to think hard about how the US could handle the UN better".

"By not paying so much attention to our corruption, crimes against humanity, and endless priviledges."

#5 ...said his remarks were part of a bid to nudge rich and developing countries towards a compromise and avert a financial crisis.

Oh, you mean a shakedown. Well you folks are good at that...

#7 The traditional or official "20%" figure given for US-specific $$$ contributions towards the UNO total budget is gener accepted by most analysts as a "low-end", minima conservative estimate - read, NOT LESS THAN. ON 9-11 AMerica's enemies told America to either accept Socialism-Communism and OWG or Amer will be destroyed, to which Dubya rightly interpreted as synonymous wid saying America either DE FACTO = OVERTLY rules the world, or Amer's enemies will destroy America so DUBYA > AMERICA DECIDES IT AND ITS ALLIES WILL RULE THE WORLD. AMER WILL RULE IN THE AMERICAN WAY, I.E. MOSTLY ECONOMICS/DEMOCAPITALISM-BASED. As after WW2, Radical Islam MUST be made into US-Western economic and democratic modern global allies, AND WHETHER THE RADICS-ANARCHISTS LIKE IT OR NOT. America restrained itself before and after two World Wars and most of the Cold War until REAGAN and BUSH 1 came along - NO MORE!? BILL CLINTON may had tried to use the still-expanding 1990's Reagan-Bush 1-Repub economy to save and justify Failed Leftism-Socialism and the Democrats, BUT DEM POTUS CLINTON'S HANDLING OF THE ECONOMY ALSO INDIR MADE IT [MORE]SEVERELY-CATASTROPHICALLY DIFFICULT FOR AMERICA'S ENEMIES TO EFFECTIVELY COMPETE AGAINST AMERICA, IFF TO COMPETE AT ALL. FOX NEWS was really brutal on the UNO in general this morning, "the evidence is in" describing the UNO's crmininal/malicious, mostly conspiratorial efforts to hamstrung America, from DESERT STORM thru OIL-FOR-FOOD thru IRAQI FREEDOM thru present, etc., in order to control America's $$$.

#8 Bolton has no control over Rush or Fox news. This isn't Burma as much as Kofi and his boys would like it to be. That is if they were in charge. We take a lot of shit at the U.N. for a country that bankrolls them to the extent that we do. Without the U.S. dollars, the whole thing would be for not. Think about that you f*cking skidmarks!

#10 from LGF: Kofi defends same - time to cut to the frigging 5% bone and tell em to find a new home. GTFO:

Even though the target of the speech was the United States, the victim, I fear, will be the United Nations, Bolton told reporters after speaking with Annan. ...

Bolton accused Malloch Brown of employing a condescending, patronizing tone about the American people and said, My hope is he looks at the potential adverse effects that these intemperate remarks would have on the organization and repudiate it.

Annan, however, agrees with his deputys views, U.N. chief spokesman Stephane Dujarric said.

The secretary-general stands by the statements made by his deputy. So there is no question of any action to be taken against the deputy secretary-general, he said.

#11 I just had a head-slap moment. You want to know what this is about? It's about Eric Shawn's book "The UN Exposed". He's on Fox, and I'd bet good money he's touted his book on Rush, or Rush has mentioned his book without having Shawn on the show.

I think Shawn must have drawn some blood.

#12 good call. Surprised the UN didn't call for him to be silenced... "to avoid harming the UN mission"

#13 did you watch it tonight.
Shawn is upset. FoxNews takes it as an attack on their existance.
While at it Ann Coulter declared war on the left...

#15 Shawn is upset. FoxNews takes it as an attack on their existance.

That's because it is. If the UN's partners in corruption get back in power, we'll see the "fairness doctrine" and all sorts of other crap reinstated to "bring balance to the airwaves". The left hates free discourse, and will stop at nothing to shut down anything that doesn't toe the line.

#16 And Shawn does have them by the short curlies, thanks to his efforts and those of Claudia Rossett and a few others. I consider his stalking questions to Sevan to be classics.

Coulter nails the Jersey Girls for the Cindy Sheehan wannabees they are. I wish she had done this way back when that fraud began to emerge, but still she does us all a great service with her guts to rip away the phoney cloak of impunity these activist "widows" have wrapped around themselves.

#17 He said he had come under fire from the 132-member Group of 77 developing nations...

Well it looks like we can add "math" to the list of things they don't do too well...

#18 Without US and Japanese money and non cash support there is no UN. Better get a grip on that.

#19 I sense a parallel here between the UN funding, about to run out, and Paleo funding.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Maybe they'll keep this arrogance up long enough for sentiment to peak here in the US for cutting these kleptocrats to the bone.

Please, oh please.
