Lets remind the American Left that Nixon's corruption never led to the deaths of Americans and Israelis.

Lets remind ourselves that the American Left doesnt give a $h!t about dead Americans or Israelis...

To even bring this up a possible comparison is ludicrous. Annan corrution has lead to perhaps 100,000s of deaths. The man is a criminal of the highest magnitude. He should be tried and locked up for life. And if his hand is directly linked he should be executed if found guilty.

worse than Nixon's?

giving aid to terrorist nations by standing against JUST military action against them, in exchange for oil money and who knows what other various and sundry perks and trinkets puts this man a few notches under Hitler.

Next to Annan, Nixon looks like an adolescent prankster.

Nixon should not even be mentioned in the same sentence as Kofi Annan.

The UN is nothing more than something really really big that does exactly the same thing Jesse Jackson does.

Concur vehemently with first three respondents: NIXON???? Think you've been reading the w-r-o-n-g history books, bucko. Nixon may have been a lot of things--"corrupt" wasn't ANY of them. And Kofi's never had to deal with the American media!

I honestly think the level of corruption is well beyond Nixon, nearly Clintonesque, and that's saying something. $21 Billion is one enormous criminal operation, and that's just the Oil-for-Money scandal. Kofi's got some heavy dues to pay.
