Impeach Obama and Hillary for submitting a report to the UN that subjects the US to human rights scruitny with the UN. These progressives need to be dispatched to like minded nations like Myanmar, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela. Leave us the hell alone!

As long as obomee is in office and the elites moving their international agenda..and he on board with them...we will not be leaving the UN...not going to happen. The whole idea is get the accountable to a World Council..period...and doing so by weakening this country as we see happening. Bo can do alot of damage yet in these two years ahead.

What bothers me is this— when Bush was President I wrote my conresmen saying the Us should get out of th eUN and get them out of the USA.I was told by congress in two consecutive Bush
Admins that we “need” the United Nations.And it is “only” a global debating society —with no “real” power over the USA
except where granted by congress.In other words we created the monster and now are afraid we might be eaten by our creation.
