Daschle defeated.
Arafat dead.
Scott Peterson guilty.

Cutting loose the goat.

Looks like everyone smells which way the wind is blowing and is putting as much distance between Kofi and the fan as possible.

Before anyone gets too excited, one should remember exactly how much weight a U.N. resolution (coming from any quarter) seems to given.....especially by the U.N. itself.

Hello....the fact that the UN basically funded the Palestinian suicide bombers (through Saddam) should be a wake-up call to somebody.

Of course, I don't expect much out of the UN itself, since it is basically an anti-semitic organization that allows the worst abusers of human rights a place of honor at the table.

Annan the Terrorist is obviously out looking for weapons, new trophy wives,
terrorists to replace his beloved Arafat, and new slaves.

FLASHBACK: Annan, Emperor of Terrorists, eagerly, licks AIDs-sputum from his favorite serial murderer of Americans.

Its funny Kofi steals million from oil for food and they give him a no confidence vote for pardoning a guy for sexual harrassment. Priorities.

Im so glad this Media Giant has chosen to run with this story. That explains why I'm hearing in every radio and tv station...not.

It's not much of jump to see the pattern of whitewashing and suppressing investigations on smaller matters like sexual harrassment and favoritism to whitewashing and suppressing investigations into Oil for Food.

I can't believe AFP would report on this--especially with the employees commenting on Coffee's corruption and the corruption of much of the top tier...

Is it possible that they're willing to sacrifice a whole gaggle of their own in order to save the miserable carcass of the UN?

I'm sure whoever would succeed these criminals would be just as bad given that the countries involved in supporting the "top tier" are just as filthy and corrupt as Coffee & Co. The scam must go on.

The UN has truly become the French state when a Union gets to have a non-confidence vote on the leadership.

But maybe everyone especially the member countries (since it is only their vote that counts) will jump on the bandwagon and get rid of this joke.

Is it Annan's fault - or is the organization itself rotten to the core?

Annan could not be reached for immediate comment. He is currently in Africa on a high-profile mission aimed at ending the long-running civil war in Sudan.

I heard on Fox last night that he was -- uncharacteristically -- out of the country to suddenly (after what, 20 years?) tend to Sudan. I assumed there must be an ulterior motive.

The American people have given Secretary General Kofi Annan a vote of no confidence a long time ago. The bum needs to be fired and put in jail with all of his cronies.

Look a little closer. Khaleej Times Online picked this up from AFP. In the body of the article they refer to an AFP exclusive interview with the union.

This is why I'm wondering if Chirac et al are trying to sacrifice Coffee & Co. in the hopes that they themselves can hide in the shadows. I don't think it's gonna work.
