First of all, the UN has marginalized itself by failing to deal with Saddam at all over the last four years, and they do so more every day. Second of all, who said anything about "great results?" The only success so far is that Bush has gotten the rest of the world to consider HOW to deal with Saddam where they weren't even willing to consider WHETHER to deal with him before. But the HOW part is taking way too long, mostly due to continued vacillation (or deliberate stalling to avoid exposing their own motives) on the part of certain UN members.

While I am willing to give the Bush team the benefit of the doubt and consider how the statements and proposals they make might fit into a complex negotiation where there are numerous parties whose own positions and postures shift with the wind, you prefer to just whine and point fingers, saying "see, they don't know what they're doing" or "they're just a bunch of liars who want to stage a war to seize oil." Both your anti-Bush bias and your lack of understanding of serious negotiations are showing.
