U.N. Housecleaning

Change: The United Nations' global warming chief is resigning. Now how about firing the head of its Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and dismantling that worthless agency?

Yvo de Boer, the Austrian executive secretary of the U.N.'s Framework Convention on Climate Change, will leave his position July 1 to join the consulting group KPMG as global adviser on climate and sustainability.

We realize he'll be replaced by another functionary just as obsessed with forcing an emissions-restriction regime on developed nations. But we'd like to see the U.N. follow up the resignation by dismissing Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the IPCC.

It was under the leadership of Pachauri that the IPCC warned the world that the Himalayan glaciers would be melted by 2035 due to man-made global warming, a claim that turned out to be one man's guesswork, not the finding of a peer-reviewed scientific report. Pachauri initially defended the claim, admitting only after he could no longer deny the truth that an error had been made.

When a house is so infested with parasites it arrives at a point where the only fix is to burn down the house to kill off the vermin. In the case of the UN we have the advantage of just leaving the world's most corrupt organization and it'll likely die for lack of funding.

No, a real UN house cleaning would be to serve a 24 hour eviction notice. Any UN personnel found after that time would be detained, boarded on a rusty, Liberian-registered fish processing boat and sent to Nigeria.

The UN building would then be symbolically fumigated and re-christened America’s Freedom Tower. There would be but two mandates for that building’s funtion: reward our friends in liberty and seriously rat-f*ck our enemies.

The stupid ass pistol with the knotted barrel statue would be replaced with a suitable work portraying the American Minutemen.

Pachauri should resign or be fired so he can go back to writing porn novels full time. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2438939/posts

BUMP! BUMP!

All UNaccountable bureaucrats should be on a one-way trip to the graveyard.

I am not advocating violence...just kicking them out of the country and leaving the UN would be sufficient in my eyes. Let them move to Zimbabwe or somewhere else they would be welcomed.

You’re a nice person and mine is a pipedream...how about we compromise on prison sentences...and what do we do with the POS Al “No Controlling Legal Authority”, “HE PLAYED ON OUR FEARS” Gore?

The monetary damage they have caused to industry/business is incalculable...not to mention the innocent young minds that have to be de-programmed. Every one of them still roams FREE...many continue to spew the lie right in our faces. More ancillary plunder takes place every day from these cretins and their minions.

Progressives are big on confiscating property from the rich, so I'm sure they'd be thrilled with the idea of confiscating all of Gore's property, liquidating it and restoring it to the American people. And then a padded room might be the most appropriate venue for Gore...he's certifiable. Queue the spitting Gore picture.
