#2 I really, really liked the oil business; all that money, but I feel like I am accomplishing something by holding conferences and by being better than the USA and all those red-staters in jesusland.

BTW, I got a really good deal on paper plates the other day, but I am afraid if I use them in a UN conference I will be attacked by the Greens for using rainforest trees.

#3 Since the Iraqi deal collapsed, Kojo, 31, has set up a company that imports oil to (sic) Nigeria from (sic) the Balkan states. He is a regular visitor to England, where he was educated, and has a ÃÂ£500,000 flat on LondonÃ¢â¬â¢s King Road. He socialises with other well-known Nigerians, is always impeccably dressed and enjoys the use of a chauffeur-driven Mercedes.

Like a rubber ball I come bouncin' back to you.

.... âHe has explained to the investigators that his only involvement with Cotecna was in Nigeria and that he knew nothing about the deal in Iraq. ...â

.... Kojo acted as a director for [Saudi] Hani Yamaniâs company and was a close business associate. .... In 2001 Yamani lined up a deal to sell about $60m worth of Iraqi oil to a Moroccan company. .... Kojo was involved in the deal. Kojo ... travelled to Morocco to help finalise the sale and was present at key meetings. However, the sale was abandoned by Yamani. ....

So, right now it still seems to me that Kojo Annan had nothing to do with Cotecna getting the a UN contract to participate in the Oil-for-Food program.

#5 Kojo no way! He's clean until he confesses on Court TeeVee and even then we can't be sure.

#6 I hope you don't consider that to be a logical conclusion, Mikey.

#8 Kojo could be caught with dirty oil deals in his hands and Sylwester would be in denial.
