#2 That'll make some heads snap. Between the US and Japan, you're talking half of all UN funding. Kojo, do you know where your car is?

#6 I wonder what a Japanese version of Darth Bolton would look like...

Japan is pay 20% and isn't even on the Security Council? WTF with that? How much does France contribute?

#7 France is at 6% behind Germany (8%) and the UK (6%). Total Europe 30%.

#8 "align=right'

Just an editing error; that's a tag that appears in the html command for most of our images (to get them to the right margin). For some reason it appeared twice on the Bolton image, so I fixed it. AoS

#9 One will not get reform until the UN is hit in its pocketbook. That will get their attention. Only trouble is, the whole concept is flawed from the git go. I would like to see more ad hoc groups of representative democracies make bilateral agreements for specific tasks with goals and sunset clauses than the open-ended open-checkbook style of organization like the UN is.

#12 whatever you do, make sure to put the stake through its heart so it can't come back to life at a later date. It's evil. Kill it. Everything it touched became worse, not better.

#13 Kenzo smiles politely and stabs them in the wallet, exactly on cue.

Banzai, indeed.
