What was that conversation between the kettle and the pot?

I guessed that there would only be a few that would notice that.

It's similar to our heated accusations against the UN and other countries in the food for oil scandal. ... that was the one where US companies got 52% of the kickbacks while the US military was letting the illegal oil shipments pass by unobstructed. Makes you wonder if our real complaint was that the US wasn't getting it's "fair share" of kickbacks and/or the other countries were not paying the appropriate tribute for letting the oil tankers go by.

and what is this balloon I see aired about sour grapes of bases in central Asia?

Uzbekistan?
