Bush 'Undermining UN with Aid Coalition'

Nope... Bush just wants to get the aid flowing, instead of relying on a do-nothing debating society, that has a history (cough .. Annan ..) of corruption when it comes to handling money.

If the aid program is run by the UN, 90% of the money will be skimmed off the top by corrupt staff, leaving only 10% for the affected countries.

WHY WOULD ANY RATIONAL PERSON WANT THE UNITED NATIONS TO RUN ANYTHING?

“It is the only body that has the moral authority"

That's funny. I almost had to stop reading when I saw that.

“Only really the UN can do that job,” she told BBC Radio Four’s PM programme.

“It is the only body that has the moral authority

Oh, stuff it you pompous, socialist b****. Does she mean "moral authority" like the Oil for Food or Oil for Sex scandal? Please Bush, disband that bunch of corrupt idiots. I don't want a single nickel of my tax dollars going to that den of thieves again.

I LOVE BUSH !!!!!

The moral suthority of the UN?
Rawanda, Kosovo, Iraq, Sudan.....

"the US is very bad at coordinating with anyone.."
Duh. I guess it means what the definition of "bad" is.
If we can't rake in billions on a humanitarian aid effort for ourselves...yeah, we're 'bad " at that.
The UN is good at coordinating relief efforts...all the way to the bank.

LOL.

Can't wait for the Kerry criticism on this one. Come out of your snake hole, Kerry.

Any aid money handled by the UN won't reach those who need it. In fact, since the UN IS involved (this astory is outdated), look not only for more complaints that the money isn't reaching those who need it right now, look for stories indicating a sharp upswing in the slave market.

“It is the only body that has the moral authority. But it can only do it well if it is backed up by the authority of the great powers.”

Moral authority? What a narcissistic load of doodoo. The only way the UN can function is by playing pattycake with dictators, and trying to strong arm the rest of us.

I suspect the above comment is French in origin. It smells French. Go George go!
