Right. Instead, the UN gets to be another piece of W's war marketing plan. As John Dean said, what an exciting prospect. Edit: Looking that last up, the context is amuningly appropriate: PRESIDENT: We are all in it together. This is a war. We take a few shots and it will be over. We will give them a few shots and it will be over. Don't worry. I wouldn't want to be on the other side right now. Would you? DEAN: Along that line, one of the things I've tried to do. I have begun to keep notes on a lot of people who are emerging as less than our friends because this will be over some day and we shouldn't forget the way some of them have treated us. PRESIDENT: I want the most comprehensive notes on all those who tried to do us in. They didn't have to do it. If we had had a very close election and they were playing the other side I would understand this. No — they were doing this quite deliberately and they are asking for it and they are going to get it. We have not used the power in this first four years, as you know.... We have not used the Bureau, and we have not used the Justice Department, but things are going to change now. And they are either going to do it right or go. DEAN: What an exciting prospect. PRESIDENT: Thanks. It has to be done. We have been (adjective deleted) fools for us to come into this election campaign, and not do anything with regard to the Democratic Senators who are running, et cetera. And who the hell are they after? They are after us. It is absolutely ridiculous. It is not going to be that way any more. www-class.unl.edu
