&quot;Even though we are looking at it from the outside, it kind of screams out at you, 'Why didn't somebody blow a whistle?' The central point is that it all adds up to the same story. You need some pretty thoroughgoing reforms at the U.N.[/QUOTE]

Yup. That Volker guy sure is one perceptive fella. Reckon that's why he gets paid the BIG BUCKS. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif

This is the organization the commiecrats want to rule the world? The same organization that hopes they never have to get involved in something so massive as tsunami relief again? What will be the cosmetic changes that are made? It is my guess they will make few, if any, changes to their political structure and we will continue to pay our 25% which seems an awfully poor return on the investment. In this country, the fiasco management of the United Nitwits would go to prison for defrauding their investors.
