Kofi AnnanAss. Get out of my country.MikeyB on December 20, 2006 at 10:02 AM
no wonder they get along so well with the Dems. Do as I say … not as I do.

MOST EXCELLENT BBQ of KOFI.
Thanks for making my morning. Breathtaking hypocrites.

It’s time to cut off funding for the Useless Nations.
pullingmyhairout on December 20, 2006 at 10:12 AM
I can’t believe it took almost 30 years for this story to come to light. Why is any non-citizen getting subsidized housing? Then again, what am I saying — most of the subdized housing in LA goes to illegal aliens.

Better watch what’s being said. Some highbrow print media type might call us imbeciles.

Only in America can some UN scumbag use US dollars to live high on the hog. While others who are under the watch of the UN suffer (Rwanda anyone?).
If it were not for US military might and Dollars, the UN would already be in the Ashbin of History where it truly belongs.

The UN failed in the Balkins, Sudan, Haiti, Somalia etc.(way too many to list). Corrupt elitist hypocrits. Fund NATO not the UN!

I don’t mind the UN being a blood sucking anti-western parasite, I just object to them being cutthroat parasites. I seriously now want that damned organization moved to Switzerland or Paris or Damascus, someplace but freakin New york.

Bad Kofi. Bad. Shame on him. Perhaps NYC could force him to buy out his apartment from the program and pay decades of back rent? Nah, it’d never happen.
flutejpl on December 20, 2006 at 11:14 AM
Another reason for the U.S. to refuse to pay another cent to the UN until the corruption is cleaned up, all individual debts such as parking tickets are paid in full, and the UN commits to pay for every penny of the costs of the proposed expansion the UN building including those suffered by the nearby residents who will see a decline in their quality of life.

In today’s culture, not only does crime pay, but apparently, hypocracy and impotence pay as well. So sad.
CyberCipher on December 20, 2006 at 11:24 AM
Now, Now we know “I am a liberal, I am the exception to the rule” makes this right. So Orwellian of Kofi.

Great Vent Michelle!
Big surprise! UN personnel taking advantage of any and all government programs for their personal benefit! Predictable, and this is undoubtedly only the tip of the iceberg.
Most Americans would do the same if they could, but the difference is that Kofi is not only supposed to set an example, and not of extreme hypocracy.
Perhaps one of the places to examine is not only hyprocitical UN personnel, of which there are undoubedly legion, but also the entitlement programs that give them the opportunity for this graft.
If they are not entitled to benefits why are they receving them? Who is overseeing these programs? Where can we, the public, make inquiry as to the enforcement of provisions of tax funded programs such as this one?

This guy is crooked as a three dollar bill. And everyone knows it. Yet the authorities avert their eyes. What is it that ‘the authorities’ don’t want to see? What is it that they don’t what the rest of us to see?
Lawrence on December 20, 2006 at 11:58 AM
Typical of the internationalist elitists. They complain, criticize and insult America, but yet take advantage of everything this great country has to offer (and then some). I’ve always felt that, despite the obvious anti-American sentiment, the UN was a necessary organization (for its humanitarian efforts) – After this, I’m done thinking that way. GET THE HELL OUT OF AMERICA, YOU GREEDY, SLEEZY, WORTHLESS SCUMBAGS…go to France where you belong.
Rick on December 20, 2006 at 12:13 PM
You mean would most Americans grossly lie about their income in order to qualify for subsidized housing? Speak for yourself!
EF on December 20, 2006 at 12:27 PM
Elitist don’t have to answer to the New York public. I wonder what Chillary has to say about this?

Good bye, good riddance, you suck.
Kini on December 20, 2006 at 1:48 PM
Except that most Americans would not.
The fact that most Americans can cheat the system in any number of ways, but don’t, should tell us something about who Americans really are and what grass-roots America really stands for.
Lawrence on December 20, 2006 at 3:03 PM
Can’t spell corruption without a ‘u’ and an ‘n’.
thirteen28 on December 20, 2006 at 3:10 PM
*sigh* How UNsurprising.
labwrs on December 20, 2006 at 3:14 PM
Over and over we bitch and moan about the UN and their employees. So, what’s it going to take to get them out of the country?
EF on December 20, 2006 at 5:02 PM
KOFI is corrupt and no one can covince me otherwise. To not know about his son in the oil for $$$ program and all the other BS resolutions at the UN under Kofi’s tenure is discusting. He is now moving to Switzerland so he can keep an eye on his Swiss Bank accounts Talk about an elitistic sob. I bet John Freeking Karry will have a great time on the Swiss slopes. Playing slope a dope all the way to the bank.

Great Vent Michelle.
The UN hasn’t been worth a hoot since Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld died in that plane crash in 1961. The organization should move to Paris. Soon.
Zorro on December 20, 2006 at 7:32 PM
Great Vent Michelle & Hotair…
If most americans do the same as kofi then it’s about time because all these uppity bastardry people do as they want.
New Yorkers! they are in your state stand up to them and protest like the liberals and demand that building be shut down and open up as an apartment or something. You guys know what will work for your state…
Toss all those freaks who sits in our country to the curb or pay like the real people and not like the good senator clinton or kerry, they cheat the same way.
I hate to see this happen but you all know it’s been happening for a long time and we let this A-Hoe talk
shitabout us and our President since for ever..So get out and so long youShitHead….KOFIalyce on December 20, 2006 at 8:15 PM
Kofi is a typical socialist, takes our money and runs. At least he could have learned something hanging around a capitalist country and turned a profit like Barney Frank.
right2bright on December 20, 2006 at 8:23 PM
Speak for yourself, I don’t know who you hang out with but no one I know would pull a stunt like this. Get some counseling, and change your friends.
right2bright on December 20, 2006 at 8:28 PM
Oh, let’s keep the UN in the US BUT relocate it somewhere away from all the hustle, bustle and vices of City Life.
I know of some abandoned military bases and the like that would be ideal for the organization. Dormitory/barracks/tent living for the Ambassadors, Quonset huts for the permanent staff. Mess halls for everybody, a few recreational facilities, communal toilets and showers and rather Spartan meeting/work buildings. That and up to date commo with home governments is all they really need to do all they can actually accomplish. Cut out all the high living and that organization might attract some worker bees for a change. For sure, the drones would seek to avoid it.
Oilpatcher on December 20, 2006 at 8:34 PM
(right2bright)It’s not about hanging around with anyone that would do that but pure SARCASM…so get over yourself and you get counseling if you know you’re going to get better..Can anyone remember what was once Good here.
Well what was once Good is now Bad,
And what was once Bad is now Good.
People let people get away with everything under the sun,
like rapist , murders , thieves , well they’re all good now because they don’t pay the crime well not if you can make the people believe that you can go to rehab and get better. Ha Ha Ha!
alyce on December 20, 2006 at 10:23 PM
Starting a little early on the Christmas cheer are we, maybe one to many tonight?
right2bright on December 20, 2006 at 11:25 PM
Kofi is merely a successful fraudster. New York’s finest encounter his ilk every day at the three card monte stands or bilking the elderly in gutter cleaning scams.
It’s nice to dream of Kofi getting the NY taxpayer subsidized housing he deserves … at Rykers Island.
