As if kissing every powder-blue hiney thats paraded in front of him isn't bad enough, now it seems (according to the June 28 issue of The New American) President Bush is pushing to spend $606 million (Defense Dept dollars) to help train a UN standing army. More of our tax dollars spent on UN social elite globalists. How lovely. My disenchantment with President Bush all started with his amnesty for illegals scheme and things seem to be going downhill. I wonder... is he trying to make me not vote for him??
Isn't the US Military the same thing as the UN Army? It seems anytime a UN action occurs it is the US Military that executes it.
They know our only other option is to sit it out and let Kerry take it.
Got a bill number ? ANYONE ?
Yep it must be true, The John Birch Society says so.
No.
The idea of a UN standing army is dangerous. From time to time there are people who propose that all armed forces in the world be put under UN control.
You best not start a thread like that; everybody will know you're not telling the truth right off the bat.
Has he approved an appropriation, as the headline states? Or is he advocating an appropriation, as is stated in the body?
Do you have sources for this? Can you post your sources?
Is this a bill before Congress? Please elaborate.
Ah, Mr. Bush. Who in the Sam Hill is advising you? Sh*t!
If true, not good, not good at all.
Okay, okay, I know we seem to have slipped into being an imperial republic with the President as elected Emperor -- but I was hoping and praying that the somewhat evidenced onset of Empire was not the hard truth -- that instead we still operate according to the expectations established by and the limitations constructed within the charter -- the Constitution.
Do you hold that the Constitution is a forgotten, non-operative thing that is long past its day?
This is from the John Birch Society people! Get a grip.
What the ???? BTTT
When the guy from the GWB for re-election campaign called me tonight to solicit funds, I asked him about it and he said he 'thought it was accurate'. Thats good enough for me.
Exactly how much of this is factual? Other sources please...
Money for death...
One of the most stunning developments to come out of the Bush administrations war on Iraq has been almost completely ignored by the media cartel. Incredibly, the Bush Defense and State Departments are jointly proposing to establish, with the apparent blessing of the White House, a 75,000-strong army of international "peacekeepers." Called the Global Peace Operations Initiative (GPOI), this astonishing scheme calls for recruiting and training primarily Third World peacekeepers, to the tune of over $600 million over the next five years.
Check out the quote from Edward Mortimer at the top of the article. Where's the bucket, I'm going to throw up.
So your source is a "guy who called to ask for funds"?
LMAO so a telemarketer is your source? Geeze.
