The UN is going to be angry. And they are going to write them a letter telling them just how angry they are!

The LIBERAL media has been slowly forcing us to accept GAYS in the BIG GOVERNMENT and the UN because they want US to ALL become GAY, and then we'll all have to BECOME ATHEISTS and KILL UNBORN CHILDREN for the good of some THIRD WORLD TERRORIST!
How was that? I tried to get all the crazy conspiracy elements into teh smallest space possible... what did I leave out?

Actually you forgot that first they will warn the offending country about the UN's desire to look into the possibility of writing a letter. Next, they will send a notice of intent to send a letter. Finally, if, and only if, diplomacy completely and catestrophically breaks down, will the letter be sent. In extreme cases it will be followed up by a "Hrumpf" from Kofi Anan.
At the end of the day French politicians and UN beuraucrats will get some sweet sweet graft out of the deal, and really, isn't that what diplomacy is all about?

PS: The weather here sucks. It's been 15 degrees on average lately, which really sucks for playing outdoor hockey.

Imagine all the coffee in the world was going to run out eventually, maybe soon.

When will people wake up and smell the carbon dioxide?
Never. CO2 is an odorless gas.
