Man, they just keep getting dirtier and dirtier, don't they?
They're okay by doing this, the Lefties would no doubt say, because it involves the UN, so it's got to be in the best interests of global.....something-or-other, right?
But the Halliburton thing was crooked. I love it.

The left loves the U.N. Maybe it's because the U.N. is anti-American.

This has been floating around for a while. The implication is that Hussein bought favor with Kofi Annan using his son as a laundering proxy.

Wouldn't surprise me, considering the French and the Germans did the same thing.
