The cover-up is always worse than the crime, they say. But that doesn't necessarily hold true when you're dealing with the crime of the century — in fact, two centuries. And the U.N. Oil-for-Food program is among the largest criminal enterprises in history. Over the course of several years, the U.S. General Accounting Office estimates Saddam Hussein's Iraqi dictatorship generated more than $10 billion in illegal revenues by exploiting Oil-for-Food. Members of the United Nations seem to have been deeply involved in the scandal. For example, Benon Sevan, once the executive director of Oil-for-Food, was included on an Iraqi Oil Ministry listing of hundreds of people who allegedly received oil vouchers as bribes from Saddam's regime.

Kind of puts a damper on Kerry's Global Test doctrine, eh?

Besides, Bush already instituted the Global Test. It goes something like this. "You are either with us, or you are with the terrorists".
