C-Span now showing the Oil For Food Scandal with Congress members.

[Bahbah]

Is this the Norm Coleman (may God bless him and keep him safe) led hearing?

[OXENinFLA]

Coleman to Hold Hearing: “How Saddam Hussen Abused the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program” [MN]

Bump....

[OXENinFLA]

yup......

[Jazzman1]

if ANY heads roll on this I'll be surprised, as the U.N is one tight-knit and closed fraternity. About as useless as one too!

[OXENinFLA]

Note: the numer has been adjusted to $21.3 Billion that was fleeced by Saddam.

"Coleman to Hold Hearing: “How Saddam Hussen Abused the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program” [MN]"

[OXENinFLA]

Paging Kojo Annan

>>>Coleman to Hold Hearing: “How Saddam Hussen Abused the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program” [MN]<<<

This is a "dog bites man" story. Saddam abused everything. The hearing I am waiting for is:

“How Kofi Anan and the UN Abused the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program”

[OXENinFLA]

The Subcommittee also objected to the recent actions of the Independent Inquiry Committee (“IIC”) headed by Paul Volker, that are “affirmatively preventing the Subcommittee” from receiving key documents relevant to its investigation.

Can you say stonewalling...............(I know how much the left like to use that phrase.)

[RockinRight]

I think that, like the American Left, the UN will gradually become irrelevant over the next decade or two as people see it for what it is.

I hope, anyway! We say it's wishful thinking, but look at the last few elections. It was "wishful thinking" that conservatism would overtake liberalism in America but it's happening.

[OXENinFLA]

LIVE THREAD ping.........

Over here.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

FoxNews is also talking about this. $21 billion dollars so far and the MSM still isn't interested.

[Mo1]

Thanks for the reminder

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

...a cousin of the U.S. Senate

[Carry_Okie]

But the United Nations NEEEEEDED the money to do compassionate work for the world's poor (bureaucrats)!

AMERICANS caused this scandal by depriving the UN of tax money and DROVE them to this fate. (sob!)

Have you no compassion!

1998 limited bombing...

I wonder who did that? /sarcasm

1999 Security Council debated how to handle Iraq.

I wonder who did that? /sarcasm
