Good Gracious!- we should close ALL borders and evict all non-citizens, stop ALL foreign aid, close all foreign military bases, get out of UN, get the UN out of USA.
Sit back and see how well they do- Cripes! they probably wouldn't even spend the money to have this dang conference-
What'd ya think, they might last 3 months?

Please! Will someone tell me how, even in pure utopian theory, there is any responsibility for the people of the United States to provide sanitation for any other people? For that matter, is it the responsibility among ourselves, for the people of one of the United States to provide sanitation for the people of another of the United States?
Or even within one of the States, is it the responsibility of us in Cincinnati to provide sanitation for our fellow Ohioans in Cleveland, Columbus, Morrow, Wakefield, Bryan or Defiance?
This is truly just more of the Gulliver's Travels World that the modern "Liberals" have given us. They would reduce the once proud Republic of the Fathers to the level of a group of Hindu untouchables, expected to provide sanitation services to the rest of humanity. It is a pity that we are even sending delegates to such a conference!

How soon they forget how America came to the rescue during the two World Wars. They don't get any sympathy from me. I'm tired of them all. I think Blair IS a friend to America but England is not. France is a lost cause unless God steps in and does something and I think He is in all of Europe. We just don't hear about it. Things are changing in the Spirit if not yet in the physical.

Just call this for what it is: The rest of the world has declared war on the United States. I would love to expand on my views, but I'd violate the FR posting rules. Anyone know of a bb where intelligent, educated people can discuss the facts facing the world, even if offends some? Can someone hear tell me the difference between the moderate views expressed at FR and that show the GOP put on in Phili two years ago?

Hel*,we didn't take these leeches to raise!The u.n. had better start getting used to doing these things on their own and it's past due the rest of the world needs to start paying their fair share.

The summit is aimed at reducing world poverty through promoting environmentally sustainable growthW4ll, maybe if the world would stop sending their poor across our borders, we would experience environmentally sustainable growth.

I feel sorry for Blair. It feels like he is standing alone against his cabinet. If the cabinet got its way, it would be a left wing nightmare. Well, that's what Blair gets for being head of a left wing majority party.

The UN's time is gone. Fumigate the building and shut it down. Let's send them the message...and remind them not to waste energy by leaving the lights on. Every tyrant follows the same extortion plan...keep the people poor, preferably starving to gain international sympathy...while these "poor" nations' leaders pocket billions and the UN delegates dine on caviar and champagne and plan a billion $$$ face-lift for their new headquarters. No more allowance for them....these middlemen are thieves.

Screw 'em. The Government takes enough of my money. We take care of the world and they hate us. Let them deal with their problems.
To: Cincinatus' Wife
Opps....
I meant this one...
Of those wanting to leave Britain behind, the United States was the most popular destination followed by Australia.
Again, if they wish to come, let them. The more English speakers in the US, the better.

I have a friend in England who tells me that no one there likes Mr Blair because he is a good friend of Mr Bush. Mr Blair is a devout Christian and is doing his best to help America fight the Muslims.
