NEW YORK — With Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in the audience, President Bush used his valedictory address to the U.N. General Assembly Tuesday to warn the organization to do more to reject the tyranny and terrorism that plague many U.N. member nations.

Couching his warning in flattering language about progress that has been made to prevent terrorism so far, Bush said the nations of the world must provide opportunities for its citizens to excel — free from forced labor, discrimination and oppression.

"Multilateral organizations have responsibilities. For eight years, the nations in this assembly have worked together to confront the extremists' threat. We've witnessed successes and setbacks," Bush said.

"To be successful, we must be focused and resolute and effective. Instead of only passing resolutions decrying terrorist attacks after they occur, we must cooperate more closely to keep terrorist attacks from happening in the first place. Instead of treating all forms of government as equally tolerable, we must actively challenge the conditions of tyranny and despair that allow terror and extremists to thrive," he continued.

[MotorCityMan]

It's just GREAT that * took time out from his "busy" schedule to lecture the UN.

:sarcasm:

Sorry, World. Not all of us voted for the moron, some of us knew in 2000 he was going to be a horrible president, but I don't think very many knew just how much damage he was going to do.

Or anyone flipping the bird at least?
