If you want to stop the next Oil-for-Food, the deal you have to offer is U.N.-funding-for-Transparency. At the very least, what this scandal should suggest to American tax-payers is that before sending any more funds to the U.N.—home of privilege and secrecy—we need a new U.N. policy, of opening the books.

Open their books and shut their doors. Time for Annan to blow on out of Dodge....

I imagine this conversation in the inner sanctum of the White House, sometime around the offensive against Afghanistan:

President Bush - "Gentlemen, we must go into Iraq next. If we do that, we can obtain their records and use that information to expose the true nature of the UN and all its corrupt, under-the-table deals. If we don't, every country in Europe will fight us in the WOT."

Bush knew. And Bush knew it had to be stopped. And fast.

Thank God GW had the courage to expose those bastards. Now we just need to run them out of town on a rail, or, back to the swamp that vomited them into our country in the first place.
