I See Dead Institutions, They're Everywhere, and They Don't Even Know They're Dead

They know they are corrupt and are in no way interested in reform. We know they are corrupt and are in no way interested in reform. They know we know they are corrupt and are in no way interested in reform. We know they know they are corrupt and are in no way interested in reform. They know we know they know they are corrupt and are in no way interested in reform. We know they know we know they are corrupt and are in no way interested in reform...

The United Nations yesterday threw up a stone wall in the oil-for-food scandal, insisting that contracts between the world body and private companies should not be turned over to investigators.

In a defiant move that has infuriated probers, Secretary-General Kofi Annan threw his support behind a letter from former oil-for-food head Benon Sevan to officials of a Dutch company that inspected Iraqi oil shipments. The letter directed the company not to hand over documents to congressional committees and other "governmental authorities."

US out of the UN now. They're not anti-war, they're on the other side. Or as President George W. Bush once said, "you're either with us or against us." They have chosen. Now, so should we.
