. "Listen James Bone, you've been behaving like an overgrown schoolboy in this room for many, many months and years.

And you, Kofi, have been acting like an aristocrat, when you are really just an old weiner vendor from the midwest.

"fed by people with agendas."

LOL! Coffee, that is a great one!

I suppose exposing corruption and criminality to the light of day and trying to prevent future episodes is a good and legitimate agenda. Sorry if it bothers you.

Gosh... Kofi is the one implicated in the systematic theft of billions of dollars in aid money, and he's insulting a member of the press for asking questions.

I don't get it Kofi, I really don't. You didn't the UN's failure in Rwanda get to you, or the failure in Somalia, or YOUR failure in Kosovo (which, if you recall, was during your tenure as the head of the Anti-Genocide council in the UN).

I thought that after all of that you might be a little bit tougher than to let a silly old reporter get under your skin...

And Kofi, you are nothing more than an overglorified, cowardly piece of sh*t thief.

"You are an embarrassment to your colleagues and to your profession."

Saw this on Fox. Sounds to me like some sort of bizarre self transference by Kofi to this diligent reporter. Kofi is everything (And more) that he accuses the reporter of being.

Nothing gets Kofi happier than good times with Yasser. Check out his google pics. When do you see him more relaxed and happy than when he's with Arafat?

Coffee sounds like THE ideal candidate to try that new international criminal court in the Hague.

What Koffi cup really means is, "Listen up underling, I am your overlord, I run the UN, I am in charge of socialist utopia. Know your role and shut your mouth."

Well this is a disturbing situation. I actually find myself defending a reporter. Hopefully, this won't become a trend.
