The mainstream media is changing for sure.

It is handing the torch of delivering truth to America to us, only because we are ripping it out of their cold dead hands!

FREE REPUBLIC IS THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA!

I can probably be correct in saying the democrate were probably on board with this too. The UN should be bulldozed into the heap of rubble for which it truly has evolved. UN = the hate America commie complex.

In Mama-T's language: The UN is full of a bunch of US hating SCUMBAGS! Of course she would never call that leftist organization that, but I will!!

UN's corruption, fecklessness, and betrayal of the west? Started in 1948, didn't really gain steam in America till the enviro whack movement (get the useful idiots to do the job for you). If you go to my Profile page and go to links, it's listed in in the U.N. section, or click here. Probably more than you may want to know.....





Get US Out of the UN Now!

Unless they realize they are caught and are going to turn to their next trick--throw someone to the pack to let the others escape!

MIDI - FOOD GLORIOUS FOOD

We'd debate in the U.N....goodness, here we go again
All we saw was their stonewalling

This one really takes the cake...many had been on the take
All those scumbags should be falling

Marc Rich had been where he shouldn't have been
Thanks to Bill, he would get away clean

And we're ready for major league *ss kicking now
That is nothing like we've ever seen

Food, oil for food...the U.N. was scamming
Kofi, you are toast...FOX News says it damning

No wonder they voted NO...money had been flowing
They hoped that their bank accounts kept on growing

Food, oil for food...10 billion they'd gather
This story does not...interest Mr. Rather

Saddam had paid terrorists...connect all the dots

It's food...oil for food...they are so screwed...oil for food

Food, oil for food...the U.N. was scamming
Kofi, you are toast...FOX News says it damning

Money had bought weapons that killed some of our soldiers
Chirac, we should make sure you don't grow older

Food, oil for food...10 billion they'd gather
This story does not...interest Mr. Rather

Saddam had paid terrorists...connect all the dots

It's food...oil for food...oil for food...they are so screwed...oil for food
Oil for food...they are screwed

Bundle him up and send him to Iraq and let the new Iraqi government try him for crimes against their children.

Am specifically looking for information on the Korean War and the UN's treachery, which had allegedly began then.

Oil-for-Food Official May Have Blocked Inquiries

May?

Clauia Rosette (sp?) has covered this for a year for The Wall Street Journal and
be just about a weekly guest on The Hugh Hewitt Show (www.hughhewitt.com or www.krla870.com).

This is only news to the purposefully deaf-dumb-and-blind MSM.

The title should be changed to:

Coleman to Hold Hearing:

How the UN Abused the Iraqi People in the Oil-for-Food Program”

The US Republican party vs. the UN reminds me of a scene from Star Wars, where the phrase from the world's people is "please help us......you're our only hope".

Anybody want to lay wager that nothing will come of this?

Based on other things the U.N. has done and what OUR government hasn't done, my guess is this will fade away and nothing more comes from it.

Unless of course WE do something about it. i.e. Tell OUR effing government to get us the hell out of the U.N.!!
