Well, Then He's The Last To Know

Kofi Annan is shocked, shocked at learning that the UN's Oil For Food program was corrupt.

"I think I'm not the only one who was shocked by what we read in the report," Annan said. "He's been here working with many of us for quite a time, and we had not expected anything of the sort."

But, Annan said, "I think we should wait until the work is done before we draw definitive conclusions."

Annan reminds me of Dan Rather who said that, if the National Guard documents turned out to be phony, he wanted to be the reporter who broke the story.

He's probably shocked that his attempted cover up failed so badly.
