Lack of accountability and professional ethics...?
who are we talking about here...? could it be the bush administration...? the house of representatives...? the republican party...? u.s. corporations...? ~smacks forehead~ silly me... no, it's the U.N...!
this is the kind of disingenuous crap that causes not only people in other countries but our own citizens as well to roll their eyes... is the u.n. a massive bureaucracy...? i have no doubt... does it have ethical lapses...? i'm sure... do u.n. employees suffer from poor morale probably out of sheer frustration...? i'd be willing to bet on it... now, go back and substitute the names of any of those other entities i mentioned in the opening graph and it will read exactly the same... if we're gonna insist on being the overbearing nanny to the rest of the world, we better start by cleaning up the dogshit in our own backyard... (and sending john bolton in with a wrecking crew is hardly the answer to the u.n.'s problems...)
p.s. here's a rude finger gesture to all those who will read this and righteously intone, "why the fuck should we care about what other countries think...?"

A Congressionally mandated panel will report this week that the United Nations suffers from poor management, "dismal" staff morale and lack of accountability and professional ethics.
