Addendum to previous...

Another thing that bugs me about the post by Publius which I wrote about in my last, is that these people who claim that the pronouncements of the UN are The Voice Of The World, always feel free to cherry-pick what actually comes out of the UN. For instance, the UN had previously passed 16 "binding resolutions" that Saddam was supposed to comply with, but didn't.

So how come those resolutions aren't The Voice Of The World?? Since the US and its allies were for the first time making those resolutions actually, you know, "binding," how come we are not credited with carrying out the wishes of the world? And why isn't Publius castigating those who blocked the enforcement of those resolutions? Or of Resolution 1441?

One may as well push on a string, John. These people have no moral consistency because they have no conscience, or to put it more charitably, their consciences speak very softly.

God, sometimes I wish mine would shut up. But that's what I get for being an Adams. :)

I have never seen anyone (Publius) use so many words to say so little and all of it inane. He's not worth your time, John.

I think you are right. But of course he's mostly an excuse to say whatever I feel like saying...

And his smokescreen of verbiage covers up his real position, which is: Whatever Bush is for, I'm agin.
