Man oh man. Dont'cha just love the smell of your wasted tax dollars in the morning? So, which gopE candidate is saying he/she will defund the u.n.? Oh, nobody? Gee whiz, why not. They sure don't do anything positive for the ones that give them the most. "Takers get the honey, givers sing the blues." Too Rolling Stoned/Robin Trower.

I believe that figure is exceptionally low, does it take into account the money lost to all the socialists there through taxes, traffic fines, et al?

GET US OUT OF THE UN AND THE UN OUT OF THE US — NOW!!!!

Since the would-be jihadi murderers in Garland were dispatched to their 72 virgins by an extraordinary cop, the ersatz “conservative” attacks on PAMELA GELLER — most especially those by Trump, some of the talking heads on Fox (the super LIGHTWEIGHT Martha McCallum among them) and the usual suspects on the other networks — have me asking how much of the insane multicultural/diversity/tolerance Kool-Aid these people have consumed.

Many of the attacks are based on assertions that Geller is actively pissing off muslims to elevate her PERSONAL STATUS and for PERSONAL GAIN. Anyone care to speculate how these modern day Quislings would have responded to Thomas Payne’s publication of “Common Sense”, Patrick Henry’s “Give me liberty or give me death” or that troublemaker Jefferson’s “Declaration of Independence”, all actions clearly capable of pissing off King George?

Geller’s actions have had what I suspect is her desired effect of RAISING THE AWARENESS OF AMERICAN CITIZENS — far too many of whom have the attention span of a fruit fly (thank you GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS!) — to the GROWING ASSAULT ON THE WEST BY THE TYRANNICAL AND MURDEROUS POLITICAL SYSTEM KNOWN AS ISLAM, DEVIOUSLY MASQUERADING AS A “RELIGION” SO AS TO AVAIL ITSELF OF THIS NATION’S CONSTITUTIONAL PROTECTIONS OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT. THAT THEY DO SO WHILE NOT ONLY DENYING GELLER HERS BUT PLEDGING TO DENY HER THAT MOST BASIC RIGHT OF LIFE ITSELF!

If her activities DO elevate her personal status, SO BE IT!! I will consider it a just reward for her having put her life in very real jeopardy from the followers of the “religion of peace”.

Want to know what islam is REALLY UP TO (aided and abetted by many of our own “leaders”), watch and share the 4 minute video at the link below — unless, of course, there’s some really cool new show on The Comedy Channel.

“....unless, of course, there’s some really cool new show on The Comedy Channel.” Nope, a new episode of the kardouchians. Proof positive that life ain’t fair. :>}
