Responding to inquiries regarding the President’s activities at the UN, White House Press Secretary announced Tuesday morning "The speech is about liberation and how liberation from poverty, disease, hunger, tyranny and oppression and ignorance can lift people up out of poverty and despair. The U.N.’s core mission is in line with that and that’s what we should all be working toward."
The key points of the President’s speech were the way we have taken a country with an operating government and functioning infrastructure and turned it into one of the most backward nations in the Middle East, if not the world.
Bush is also expected to address the UN Climate summit and assure those gathered that the US has absolutely no intentions of doing anything to address growing concerns regarding the environment.
Bush has been know to revere the United Nations, and points out how well his encounter with the august body went before the US invaded Iraq.
