Rantingprofs has some fun with the NY Times' response to the UN Oil-for-Palaces scandal:
You would think that the people who are so insistent on the ability of the UN to do just about anything would have to confront the institution's fundamental ineptness and, oh yeah, the enormous scandal of the Oil for Food debacle.
