Didja hear about the U.N.’s new blog, run by former Kerry aides Peter Daou and Debra DeShong? Among the blog’s initial entries are an attack on FOX News’s Oil for Food investigative report and links to pro-Kyoto Treaty propaganda.

Yeah, that’ll solve Kofi Annan’s problems.

Interestingly, in a mass e-mail I received frou Daou yesterday he writes:

You can see from the UN Dispatch blogroll - which will continue to expand - that this is not about “discrediting conservative critics,” as the above-mentioned sources allege, but about engaging in a wide-ranging and productive debate. The blog was launched earlier this month and will soon be open for reader comments.

Any bets on how long that will last?

And when do you think the U.N. Dispatch blog will get around to covering this or this? Hmmm?

Update: Kofi Annan’s puffery in the Wall Street Journal is here. Perhaps on the advice of his trusty Kerry spinners, he did not use the word “kerfuffle” once.
