April 28, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - A former manager in the scandal-scarred oil for food program will tell Congress today how top U.N. officials running the program deliberately looked the other way, congressional officials said last night.
Frenchman Michael Soussan, a former program coordinator for the $100 billion fund, is expected to be the star witness of a House International Relations Committee hearing looking into Saddam's gigantic $10.1 billion rip-off.

I guess he thinks he represents the UN instead of New York. I hope his constituents find out how much he cares about them.

"It seems that Democrats are willing to sell their own souls and TRASH the UNITED STATES AND President Bush for the UN and POLITICS!!! If we don't defeat these ENEMIES of OUR COUNTRY in the next election we will ALL BE SORRY!"Exactly! Kudos to Greene for getting the questioning back on track..though we KNOW it's gonna get wrenched right back to the evil Bush/Cheney/Halliburton triangle again. And again. And if it's reported by the media, it'll be nothing but "Halliburton implicated in oil for food scandal"

I'm SO glad he asked what the odds were that some oil for food money ended up in a bank in the Bahamas to fund al Qaeda while they were training in Iraq. At least the question is on the record.

If these so-called lawmakers were trashing my company like they have been doing Halliburton, I would be taking names and lining them up for a court date. They would either prove it or shut the *ell up!

Kristoff is doing a good job. Well, almost all of the witnesses have done well, with a couple exceptions. Most of the committee is doing well, except the Dems bound and determined to make it look like the evil Bush/Cheney/Halliburton triangle is behind all the corruption. Kristoff made clear that the abuses atarted almost at the same time the blood money for oil program did...which was during the Clinton administration.

If this doesn't lead to a rapid dissolution of the UN, if not removing them from American soil 100%, then I guess we really are all going to be slaves to a world government someday soon....

Well, that was interesting. It's gonna be really hard to spin the testimony, but easy to spin the questions.

So are they done? And will there be more?

I saw Koffe talking about the investigation and almost felt sorry for him. I've heard that his son was involved in the oil for food scam. These people must be so stressed.

I wish I could think of some way to start a draft Rudy for UN delegate movement. I can't think of a more appropriate person for the job.

While Al Gore was shaking down the Buddhist temple, Mark Rich (or other operatives) may have been setting up the money pipeline into the Demonrat Party. There was not only the wall, but also a blind eye for the open hand during the Clinton Administration.

I am from the US if that is what you are asking.
Hyde is one of the MOST conservative members of Congress and a principal enemy of the Abortionists. Left wingers LOATHE him more than anyone outside of Bush, Cheney and Ashcroft.
