Take Heart, Blogosphere
Posted by Bill The UN Oil for Food scandal may be gaining a bit of traction in the mainstream media. Congressman Christopher Shays was on CNN this morning and put forth the following gem of a soundbite: "This may be the biggest scandal ever." In the history. Of the world. Even bigger than Halliburton overcharging for oiiiiillllll. For the best in Oil for Fraud coverage, be sure to drop in on Roger Simon, Captain Ed and the Commissar's new blog, "Friends of Saddam." UPDATE: Eric at Classical Values is cautiously hopeful, and hits the nail on the head: Think about it. A primary theme in what passes for a campaign so far is the notion that the evil Bush "defied" the UN. This argument, if it is to prevail with American voters, must rely on the integrity of the UN. If the UN is seen as without integrity, ordinary voters might conclude that George W. Bush did the right thing if the Democrats' argument that he defied them sinks in. Hence, the "little people" must be told as little as possible about this outrageous scandal. If this scandal isn't squelched -- and fast -- I suspect we won't be hearing as much about the "evil" Bush and the "good" UN. But maybe I'm being naive.

Three phone calls and two emails have so far gone unanswered. Posted by: Eric Scheie at April 22, 2004 11:32 AM Keep after 'em! Posted by: Bill from INDC Journal at April 22, 2004 11:37 AM biggest scandal in the world? ever? not quite. Ever hear of the Savings & Loan scandal? Posted by: mario at April 22, 2004 05:47 PM Nice point. If the UN is exposed as corrupt, then Bush was right! But - Bush Lied , People Died! Stand back, we might see some heads explode (just like in 'Scanners'). Posted by: m at April 25, 2004 06:28 PM |
