ROSSET STRIKES AGAIN, and I mean really strikes. She "found" a leaked UN memo on how to deflect the Volker Report.

Volcker’s report comes at a difficult time for the U.N., where other recent scandals have included two Russian U.N. officials — one of them the head of the U.N.’s own budget-oversight committee — indicted in a Manhattan federal court on bribery and money-laundering charges; sex scandals among U.N. peacekeepers in West Africa; financial misconduct by Ukrainian peacekeepers in Lebanon, and assorted other cases of alleged waste, fraud, and larceny, all overseen by a secretary-general who next week plans to host a combination 60th-anniversary party for the U.N. and a reform pow-wow attended by more than 170 heads of state.
Really good and really pathetic.
