Kerry also made a statement that we lost U.N. cooperation in Iraq because we failed to turn Iraqi sovereignty over to the United Nations soon after winning the war.

Yes, I caught that too. So, we were supposed to defeat Saddam, then before the dust even had a chance to settle bring in the UN as our commanders!?!? What maniac in their right mind would let the likes of France and Sudan in to "rebuild" Iraq?

Here was the quote you guys are talking about: "The United Nations, Kofi Annan offered help after Baghdad fell. And we never picked him up on that and did what was necessary to transfer authority and to transfer reconstruction. It was always American-run."

Can you say "Oil for Food Program"??
