Annan to blast U.S. in farewell

In a farewell speech on U.S. soil today, retiring United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan plans to deliver a tough critique of President Bush's policies. He will accuse the administration of trying to secure the United States from terrorism in part by dominating other nations through force, committing what he termed human rights abuses and taking military action without broad international support.

Good-bye and good riddance to Kofi Annan. He was one of the most corrupt men to serve as U.N. Secretary-General in the history of the United Nations. From the oil-for-food scandal to the genocide in Darfur and Rwanda, Annan has some nerve to give us a lecture on human rights.
