wipe your tears

bush’s dead-heads complained to our ambassador that martin’s comments ‘there is such as thing as a global conscience’, earlier in the week at the un conference on climate change ... and that martin’s comments are the worst comments since germany’s schroeder comment earlier in the year on bush’s stand against the kyoto protocol ... and yada, yada, that these types of comments will affect any talks.

grow up bush! if you can't listen to others, perhaps you should read a few international papers (those papers where you are not paying and planting own fabricated stories), many articles reference worse comments about you or the u.s. foreign policy or your definition of torture or form of democracy.

thumbs up to martin, for calling a spade, a spade!

according to the CBC, (Washington furious over Martin's climate change comments) 'CBC News correspondent Neil MacDonald said he has been told that the Americans are watching the election campaign, and if there is too much anti-U.S. rhetoric, that it would an impair progress on sensitive political issues between the countries.’

well bush, what progress?

bush, you keep watching, and remember the whole world is watching you!

U.S. increasingly a lone state, snubbing global deals Whether it's a treaty to protect children's rights, the creation of an international court to prosecute genocide or a deal to guard cultural diversity, the U.S. over the last several years has opposed many United Nations treaties and conventions, often against a vast majority. As the U.S. continues to opt out of global agreements, including those that fight climate change and ban land mines, it is "increasingly being seen in the world as a lone state," IPS reports.

Annan defends Arbour's torture comments United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan yesterday defended the UN's high commissioner for human rights, Louise Arbour, after she faced criticism by U.S. ambassador John Bolton for her comments on torture and detention. "The secretary general has absolutely no disagreement with the statement she made yesterday, and he sees no reason to object to any of it," Annan's spokesman Stephane Dujarric noted the day after Arbour said the secret detention of terror suspects hurts the international ban on torture.
