WHAT SADDAM BOUGHT....US:
Annan tells Bush that Iraqi vote went well (Associated Press, Dec. 17, 2005)
UN Secretary-General Kofi ] Annan told Bush that violence in Iraq was low, voter turnout was high and that the Iraqi people had cleared another hurdle "on the road to democracy," said Federick Jones, spokesman for the National Security Council.
Sure the Oil-for-Food scandal was a disgrace, but the beauty is we got our war anyway and now we own the Secretary-General.

To quote Krauthammer quoting someone else: " When you hold them by the testicles, their hearts and minds will follow."
