| Chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix said yesterday he's more worried about global warming than war. "The environment - that is a creeping danger. I'm more worried about global warming than I am of any major military conflict," the 74-year-old Swede told MTV. Do we need any more evidence this clown is not the right guy for this job? Blix has come under fire by President Bush's aides who consider him weak understatement of the year! and was called on the carpet last week for underplaying the discovery of illegal drones in Iraq that could deliver chemical weapons. In the MTV interview, Blix criticized Bush for nixing the Kyoto global environmental agreement early in his presidency. "You have the instances like the global warning convention, the Kyoto protocol, when the U.S. went its own way. I regret it," Blix said. "To me, the question of the environment is more ominous than that of peace and war."

| #8 I think it is a good thing he is interested in global warming, because frankly, he sucks as an arms inspector. |

| #7 Don't we already "owe" the UN something like $1.2 billion in dues? Are we making any payments at all on that? Regardless, after proving the UN is impotent and irrelevant, we should withdraw altogether. Maybe they can impose "sanctions" to get the debt paid. Ha! |

| #6 If we suspend payments to the UN, these clowns will have no retirement accounts. That will get their attention. |

| #5 I read the interview and what shocked me was his blithe attitude towards WMD relative to global warming. Sooner or later, someone will use nukes as a terrorist weapon. On that day the UN and its ilk should be held accountable. |

| #4 Blixey-Baby is just trying to hang on long enough to build up his official retirement plan [and the unofficial one, too]. |

| #3 These windbags like Blix need to be sent a message and the only way to get their attention is to hit them and their institutions in their pocketbooks. They are the cause of global warming. |
