Drudge Report : $this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '[')b]Obama to seal US-UN relationship By Harvey Morris at the United Nations:
8 Sep 2009:--Barack Obama will cement the new co-operative relationship between the US and the United Nations this month when he becomes the first American president to chair its 15-member Security Council.
The topic for the summit-level session of the council on September 24 is nuclear non-proliferation and nuclear disarmament – one of several global challenges that the US now wants to see addressed at a multinational level.

and: Telegraph

so now, when the sheeple start freaking, all Obama has to do is bring in the blue hats, if I understand this right.

Sounds to me like there's been a deal struck for our acquiescence to the special drawing rights (giving up the US dollar as the world reserve currency). The deal goes something like this "well if we're gonna tank our economy, then at least give us more security from WMD proliferation." So it's not a bad thing we're getting *something* out of this deal, but we still have the massive problem of a devalued dollar to deal with.

I sure hope your spelling was ironic.

Typos...We all go there in the first place, don't we? Level of education, or at least some sort of fragmented POV.
It's a complete nuisence in regards to context vs.content. Rather judgemental, but then again pretty much the only point of orientation in a public that we don`t know any longer.
There are multiple layers to this task.

aldente, did you mis-spell nuisance on purpose?

The subtlety of the irony is very intense in either case.

Get Safari or Firefox. It has a built in spell check when you're doing posts. Very convenient.

(BTW, I fixed the typo in the OP.)
