#2 I'm way way past being utterly fed up with the arrogant slander to which Washington has no public response. Imagine the reaction if the US immediately and furiously responded to every one of these outrageous slights from non-players (int. organizations), moral cretins (same, plus various private citizens and orgs, media orgs, and governments), impudent dependents (Europe), and criminals (Russia, Arab world, Third World, China, Cuba, NoKo, Venezuela, Zimbabwe). That's right - they'd decline in number and intensity, starting right away. There seems little doubt that there is a meaningful corrosive effect, with actual implications for our interests and freedom of action, from this non-stop, unanswered slander and baseless criticism. The utter failure to address this problem is a disaster.

#4 It is better you watch and hold your tounge awhile Moon. If you follow in the footsteps of Kofi, Turtle bay will become a prime real estate sale, and you will have NO JOB.

#8 He didn't seem to give a rat's ass when Somali and Ethiopian troops were doing the fighting, but now that the great satan is in the game...

#9 I see "concerned" in there, but not "deeply concerned", so I don't think Ban Man's finished orientation yet.
I'm sure he'll get with the program once they set him straight...

#11 The Arab lobby and the Euroweenies are whispering in his ear. What a rotten time for Ambassador Bolton to be out of office.
