Bill Clinton to replace Kofi Annan?

[ScreamingEagle]

OMG, not him again! This briefly came up on Fox news this evening. Now that Kofi is probably going to get canned because of the oil-for-food scandal, Clinton is being touted as a potential replacement. I believe Clinton has been angling for this for quite awhile now.

He might be effective in some ways since so many around the world seem to like him. Could Bubba be any worse than Kofi Annan? What do you think would be the ramifications?

I'm against it. One, it will foretell the end of the world. Two, it will give libs a chance to legitimize the U.N. in the eyes of american citizens by saying "Hey, our guys the leader, how could we get screwed?"

 

[musicman]

And how apropos it would be - the de facto head of a party for whom the words "global test" make perfect sense - so contemptuous are they of the 'archaic" concept of national (that is, American) sovereignty. With Soros' billions behind him, who knows? Soros' ethics, and love for American ideals, are a matter of public record; for those who don't know, he has neither.

Oh-eight, schmo-eight - there are bigger fish to fry. Besides, there's always the danger that the pigheaded Neanderthal American electorate will presume to dictate it's own affairs, despite the best efforts of the Old Media, Hollywood, and the Clintonista judiciary. Screw 'em - there's a way around anything!

The possibilities here are mind-boggling, aren't they? The truly rabid liberals who haven't jumped off bridges by January will certainly have been energized by this election. Maybe Soros didn't throw away $50 million after all. Maybe it was seed money.

Can you imagine Bill as head of the U.N. and Hillary as prez of the United States? The prince of the air is beautiful and tells the sweetest lies.

It could happen easily enough; Hillary running, Bill "monitoring" the elections - piece of cake, man!

People who cross Bill & Hillary don't have their offices broken into and their signs taken away....

When the Clintons got caught trying to make off with the White house silverware, furnishings, and God knows what else, I got to kidding around with a buddy of mine. I said, "Look - Ma and Pa Kettle leave the White House!" But, he brought me up short with his answer - "You mean Ma and Pa BARKER!"

How right he was.

Fox is reporting that Annan could face a no confidence vote soon for pardoning some of his closest associates (sexual harassment charges) who also serve to protect him. This could get interesting.

I wonder when the Old Media will get around to it.

We better hope this never happen. because if it does you know he will try to consolidate the power of the UN for himself and to take away our freedoms. And if Hillary by some chance ends up President we will have some major problems.

Maybe it could work..we could send him and the UN over to France

I think it would be a horrible idea to have Clinton as Sec-Gen of the UN. He would become de facto head of the Democrats, their newly "elected" President, providing leadership and a badly needed "new direction" for the Democrats. Can't elect a U.S. President? Why, just get a new "President" in a bigger political arena.... They would be beside themselves with glee, as they would have a brand new focus for building the socialistic/communistic world party that they've wanted all along. I mean, they are such intellectuals, they should be running the entire world, shouldn't they?

Then prepare for more world controls on environment, a world court, world trade and monetary controls, a world police force, etc., etc. If Hillary was elected to Prez in '08, look forward to losing our sovereignty to the new world order.

We need to cut the legs from under the UN, not give it new life. Is anybody thinking like me that maybe this is why Bush, Bush, & Carter all got together to praise Bill Clinton so lavishly at the library gig? It's almost as if they all belong to the same frigging party.

I joke but of course I think Clinton would be disasterous as UN President. Im not sure he is so beloved by Europe as to merit a chance of them voting him in.......Beleive it or not he's not marxist enough for the likes of the EU, although his wife sure is. Regarding the library, that was just politics and everyone sizing eachother up. Don't read too much in that. Bush has his own mind which he has proven time and again!!

I agree Bill's not as ideologically driven as his wife is but he is a politically expedient type of guy - that is, anything in his self interest - and working with wifey's goals may just be his ticket.

Interesting comment you made about the library - that everyone was just "sizing each other up". What for? New jobs for Bill and Hillary, maybe? Why would a Republican be interested in attending Hillary's "unofficial" kick off to her campaign? I can't see any reason why Bush had to get so gushy about Clinton, he could have just said some neutrally nice things or even not show up for that matter. He could have sent the new Secretary of State in his place to dedicate the dumb library. Instead, he's got his whole family there including Bush Sr. who also gave a sappy speech...all this way too overboard imo. Why the heck are they interested in cleaning up Bill Clinton's legacy?

I think it's just respectful protocol.......All library openings feature a gathering of all living presidents. I wouldn't get to worked up over the Skull and Bones thing..
