haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!

What an idiot!!! He doesn't realize what a clown he is...Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Bosinia, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Sirrea Leone, Guinea Bissua, Liberia, etc....What a worthless fool!!! I wish him hell in the afterlife.

Suppose Kofi comes upon some thugs without a shred of decency to begin with. He'll teach them to all sing together too?

He's either truly ignorant, or truly evil. I just can't entertain another possibility.

[EERinOK]

Actually it was a playful version of any successes Kofi has ever, if ever, really had at the UN.

A scripted conflict resolotion amoungst puppets.

Not that far off from Kofi's reality. Without the script and pawns though, it blows up in his face.

Annan: Diplomats should be "more like Elmo"

Puppets in other words. Did they get to the part where I is for "Ignoring several memos describing the slaughter in Rwanda and rivers choked with bodies." I tend to doubt it.

[Squantos]

OK.......Stay Safe !

Sesame Street, in NY. Did that come out before or after 911? I'd forgotten all about that. That was strange.

[Lijahsbubbe]

Oh-my-gosh! I had no idea how deep the connections were!

[blackbart.223]

"Annan guest-starred on the long-running show to help teach children how to resolve conflict."

I don't know about anyone else, but I find that a .45 or a 12 gauge shotgun resolve conflicts quite well.

P.S. where was the barf alert on this one?

Next, Kofi appears on "Emeril" and waxes philosphical about stew being an allegory for for 'inclusiveness'.

"Yoo see, here we hab de vegatable all mix togedda...." Very appropriate, in more than one way.

[Squantos]

Just wait till the Elmo hits the fan !

Stay Safe !

[hedgetrimmer]

Too late. Its already being done.

Our "model UN" at our high school is full of students who name call and degrade parents who don't believe UN propoganda about the world "getting along".
