The New York Times, months after detailed reports by William Safire and the blogosphere at large, finally decides to report on the U.N. Oil-for-Food scandal.
How they have failed to find this relevant up until now considering their desire for deeper international involvement in Iraq, I have no idea.

Under Eye of U.N., Billions for Hussein in Oil-for-Food Plan

BILLIONS! Now let's see how much ink the Times lends to this scandal as opposed to Enron and Worldcom and other Clinton era misdeeds that have been placed on Bush's doorstep. Not this time. This is all Clinton.

The only reason this program ended was becuase we went in and took out the chief architect. Under Kerry, Saddam and his cronies the French and Russians would still be collecting. Nuanced. Sensitive. Wrong.
