“Regis”: “‘Kofi,’ is it? Tell you what: I’ll see what I can do about getting you a free month of MSN Broadband. Fair enough?
“Now shut up and go fetch me an icy cold Fanta Orange, would ya. Regis has needs.”*

The internet, although not quite as deep and wonderful a place, was much cooler five years ago. The end of free file-sharing pretty much took all the balls out of the web. Speaking of which, maybe we should send that prig from Metallica in as our nomination for the UN Head Honcho of the Intarweb – I mean, he sure seems to whine enough, he’d probably get on great with those nimrods.
Anyways, UN governance would just complete the circle. Hopefully some tech geek will figure out a way to take all the ‘UN’s out of the system though, a la the 2000 presidential transition.
I would’ve guessed that Regis was more of a “Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi” kind of a ‘stache.
Turing Word: next. Precisely what I’d expect Regis to say upon the reciept of aforementioned soda.
REGIS: “Kofi, f*ck off.”
Look, Jeff, while I normally appreciate your humor I don’t see how you can talk about Regis like this knowing damn well your mustache has been party to nefarious things in the past.
John Bolton? From his ape-like record, I would’nt be suprised if he got up on the table and started throwing his feces at Security Council.
How gauche!
Whereas refusing to condemn Palestinian suicide bombers, or to prevent genocide—providing you are wearing a tailored suit and speaking urbanely about your ineptitude—now THAT’s diplomacy!
Here’s a good shot of “Regis” for you…

Then surely Bonkers Bolton would have certainly been on board with the UN back in 1987….
“Measures to prevent international terrorism, study the underlying political and economic causes of terrorism, convene a conference to define terrorism and to differentiate it from the struggle of people from national
liberation.”
Right?
ZIONISM = RACISM!
MSN Broadband? Please. Kofi’s probably still trying to figure how to use AOL.
Unless of course, he has a minion doing this for him.
Regis, on the other hand, has been on the Internet since the early 90s. Rumor has it he posts under the name “Sharp as a Marble”
You refer to Mr. Bolton’s mustache as “straight talking.” What are you implying? And isn’t that a hate thought?
Funny you mention that. I considered pulling the hyphen. Just to piss some people off. For the hell of it.
But then I got distracted by the mailman bringing me my latest batch of “Girls Gone Wild” DVDs. Ironic, huh?
Funny, but the only one I see throwing crap around here is you, ADUCKSEZQUACK.
TW: provide. Next time, DUDACKATTACK!, you should provide cogent examples to back up your broad assertions.
“Funny, but the only one I see throwing crap around here is you, ADUCKSEZQUACK.

As long as there are low-rent-knowledge-optional attacks on Annan on this thread then you will have to take it as much as it’s dished out, you little fuckling low-tooth-per-capita household asshat.
“If [the UN Secretariat building] lost 10 stories,†Bolton once quipped, “it wouldn’t make a bit of difference.”
– Sounds like shades on Tim McVeigh.
But hey, Bolton is a diplomat.
A loony, stapler throwing diplomat.
Wow,
Smackaduckattack
Such anger!!!!!
Yeah. And we all know how many people were killed by staplers in Rwanda … and all those other places genocide occurs while the UN does nothing.
Only in the mind of someone so disingenuous that arguing with them is a lost cause.
Bolton was being figurative.
Whereas, say, the Islamofascist nuts that the UN can’t seem to control with all their conventions and forums and paper threats? Not so much.
Funny. I threw my stapler last week. The only thing it hit, though, was the fag in the office next to mine.
*shrug*
I doubt anyone can accomplish much at the U.N. without an actual Department of Bribery backing him up–even a scary stapler-throwing motherfucker like Bolton.
But perhaps I’m wrong–maybe U.N. bureaucrats really do wake up screaming from awful dreams of short bemustached demons with their hands hovering threateningly about their hips. At any rate, DUDACK’s obvious gibbering terror gives me hope.
This kind of U.N. Bribery?
“The Oil for Food Programme was not some concoction of Kofi Annan’s. It was created by a vote of the members of the Security Council. And every aspect of how the program ranâ€â€what goods were allowed, the monitoring procedures, the transfer of funds, everythingâ€â€was explicitly established by the members of the Security Council. Kofi Annan did not have a vote; but the United States and Britain did, and they approved of every resolution and decision that determined how the Oil for Food Programme worked.”

Whoohoo!!! Way to go Alex!!!
Here, stay busy. Explain the difference betwwen war and terror.
Excerpt of U.S. manual might help…

Bye for now…
Odd, I thought that I got sent to Bosnia in 1997 to help clean up after the UN. I mean, unless you count UN hospitality toward the Serbian killers at Srebencia as a success…
I guess I could have been sent to Rwanda to observe a truly successful UN effort.
Happy United Nations Day – October 24th!
Or the Congo…
Oh, one last thought – the Grauniad article mentions that the EU/UN would forcibly take control of the internet away from the US, and the US would have no choice but to accept that. Howz that physically gonna be accomplished, guv?
Jay, unfortunately my mustache and me aren’t on speaking terms. Being of hispanic origin the best I can manage is that stringy looking thing Warf sports on ST:TNG. So, no, not me
A prime example why there will never be peace in the world. Even the Annan-man-chowder-guzzlers like DORKATTACK who can’t tell the difference between war and terrorism (here’s a hint. I’ll put any US Marine next to any terrorist and 1,000 other civillians. I bet you can tell which one is the Marine) have to result to vicious attacks.
DORKAMUCK…..
Why do you have your head so far up Koffi’s ass?
From the way you so vehemently defend this poor excuse of strected flesh, one would start to think that you have a personal stake in his affairs?
Well CRACKAQUACK?
It’s a nice thought, but the translators’ union wouldn’t stand for it.
LIAR! There was no mail delivery today. Now I can never believe another word you say as long as you live.
Hah. TW: Might
As in if DUDALUDASNACK posts anything else about Bolton and the UN it surely MIGHT make me like Bolton even more. Bring it on, you feathered lip smacking drool cup!
Look, just because you think I sound like your mother, it doesn’t mean I am her.
My, My My….
The tinfoil hats come a’rattlin….
Since the best a lot of the posters can do is make noise ..and only more noise.
-I have to admit some of the mangled versions of my name are fairly imaginatve..
Anyway..
The impression I get is that Bolton will be the new enforcer, the tough guy on the block who will reform the U.N. via his recess appointment…
…And that Kofi Annan is just a bribery weakened shill, serving only his own interests for an international body that some argue should be kicked out of the United States or dismantled outright..
True, The U.N. is deeply flawed. Massacres, geniocides, military overthroes of legitimate governements transpired under the watch of the UN (with the U.S. as a permanent member of the Security Council).
So who here think the U.N. is a joke?
Who here thinks the U.S. should operate unilaterally?- without any international oversight?
Yeah!! Fuck Kofi!! Rock On Bolton!!
That seems to be the sentiment.
– except when the U.N. can be used as a tool of the Oval Office…
Saddam Hussein’s Defiance of United Nations Resolutions

-oops…
Unitintended Irony on that one? No?
As for my comment for the difference between war and terror, the point I was driving at is that there is none. Period. Read the manual I linked to and see for yourself. Thats a U.S. Conterterror manual –read it.
But since you are all so brave and so tough..
Use your abilites towards the noble cause:
Army.com
Navy.com
Airforce.com
Marines.com
-or shut up.
Next time you try to pull the chickenhawk bullshit here, DUDACKATTACK, you’re banned. Got it?
It’s the tool of a desperate pussy.
Jeff –
Don’t bother.
No bother.
Sure, sounds good to me. Any particular reason you feel the U.S. needs international oversight?
Actually, dickhead, I don’t need to read it as I had plenty of training in the Marines regarding war. I also received extensive training on how to avoid destroying non-military targets and how helping civillians is actually more effective than killing them.
The fact that you can’t discern that from some jihadist pig fucker who cuts off the heads of civillians says quite a bit about you.
Why should the US accept “oversight” from a pack of dictators, would-be dictators, criminals, and mass murderers?
And does it strike anyone else that FORKADUCK’s “defense” of the UN amounts to, “well, the US is a member, so it’s the US government’s fault!”
Lame.
